Hi,
Minimum wages specify Basic & Dearness Allowances. Also, companies with more than 100 employees need to pay HRA at 5% of Basic + DA. Additionally, HRA has certain taxation benefits for individuals staying on rent and providing a rent receipt; therefore, it is advisable to show Basic, DA, and HRA as separate items on the payslip.
Thank you.

Dear Madam,
It depends on whether your establishment is covered under the Minimum Wages Act, and you are choosing to pay the same wages as prescribed. The Act prescribes basic and special allowance (DA) for each skill level.
However, if you pay more than the minimum wages, no law will require you to pay basic and DA as separate components in the structure. You can pay what is called consolidated wages (basic and DA merged).
