Thanks SIva, That was very informative. One point: You have mentioned that if the position is that of Software Engineer, then the Min. wages would not be applicable.
Could you please elaborate on that?
Thanks and regards,

Dear All
I have also a doubt regarding Minimum wages & basic -
1. The basic is equal to minimum wage or not if the basic wages is not equlant to minimum wages how we calculated the Pf & ESI which is compulsary to calculate on basic.
2. For example - the minimum wages for a skilled person in UP is Rs.150/- according that the basic is equal to Rs. 4500/- per month & if the salary structure for any employee is like that -
Basic - 2795.00
Educational Allow.-200.00
HRA-1118.00
Medical Reimbursment -700
Other Allowance - 108.00
Transport allow - 800.00
PF -

Dear friends

I have also some doubt between minimum wages & Basic pay -

1. Basic is equalent to the minimum wages or not.
2. As per Central Govt. current minimum wages is Rs.150/- daily for skilled person in UP. according to that the salary or wages of an employee will be equal to Rs. 4500/- +DA ( Applicable 30 % on basic)
3. For PF & ESI calculation, It is calculated on basic salary of the employee & here as I know the basic is equal to minmum wages.
4. What is the corect way of calculating the basic is that equal to minimum wages or it can be less than that.

For Example i m provinding one Salary break up pls clarufy me is that correct as per Law or Not -
Earnings
Basic - 2795.00
EA - 200.00
HRA - 1118.00
MR - 700.00
OA - 108.00
TA - 800.00
-------------------
5721.00
-------------------
Total Deductions -
PT - 60.00
PF - 335.00
--------------------
395.00
--------------------
Net Salary in Hand is : 5326.00

is that the correct beak up of ssalary as per law or not ?

Waiting for your prompt reply.

Thanks & Regards

thanks Katyana, that was very informative! I still have few queries:
As I was going through the attachment that you sent, I could not find out in which category, our organisation (A BPO and a software development company: Kolkata) would fall into.
There, we have categories like commercial establishments other than shops.
so wherefrom did you get 118.00 as the rate per day? It would be good if you could elaborate a little bit on that.

Dear Guy

What we follow : Basic + DA = 60% from the current CTC. If u dont follow DA then you can fix your Basic with the range of 20% to 40%. Plus other Allowances. The Higher the Basic + DA the Higher the PF you are going to pay.

Dear Ayona,
As per the instructions of EPFO, We cant bifurcate the minimum salary. PF Should be deducted in full minimum wages applicable to the each category of employee in that state. Instructions are already issued in Himachal Pradesh & Haryana EPFO.
Hence it is ideal to keep the (basic+da) salary on minimum wages.

Dear Friend,
Basic and DA are combined in Private industry and is set as Basic only for any further statutory calculations.
Basic should cover an employee minimum expenses.
It can be on an average set as follows.
Un-skilled employees <=3500
Skilled Employeess <= 4000
Highly skilled <=5000
Case 1)Let us suppose a employee joins with salary Rs.4000
Then give his Basic alone as Rs4000
Case 2)Let us suppose an employee monthly salary is Rs.5000
Set his basic as Rs.4000 and Other Allowance as Rs.1000
Case 3) If an employee Joins with salary Rs. 6000
Basic : 4000
HRA : 1000
MA : 500
TA : 500
Gross Rs. 6000

the break up for these salary is only for basic as we pay PF and ESI and the break up do not give the employees any benefits as they do not come into taxable limit.

Let his salary be Rs. 10,250
Basic: 7000
HRA : 3000
Others: 250
here total is 10,250 the advantage is the employer need not pay his PF or ESI contribution.

For the same structure of Rs. 10,000 if the company is paying PF and ESI
Basic: 5000
HRA: 2500 if office is in chennai, Mumbai, Kolkatta or Delhi else 40% of Basic
TA : 800
MA : 1250
LTA : 450
Gross: 10,250

Hello Quereshi,

Please take a look at the CTC structure that I am framing: say for example that the monthly CTC is Rs. 12,000 P.M. , so the CTC break up would be as follows:
Basic: 3600 (30% of 12,000)
HRA: 1800 (50% of basic)
C.A.: 800 (till this amount this is tax free)
P.F. 1440 (12% of basic).......employer's contribution
S.A.: 4360 (balance amount)
Less:

Employee's contribution: 12% of basic

Please take a note of the following points:

1) Basic + DA must be equivalent to the min wages prescribed by the commissioner's off (if you do not have D.A. then the basic alone should compensate that....this would differ from state to state)
2) HRA should always be 50% of the basic (In case of metro city) and 40 % on the same in case of non metro city
3) Conveyance Allowance (C.A.).should be 800 P.M. as till that amt it is tax free.

You can also include other components like LTA (Leave Travel Allowance); CCA (City Compensatory Allowance)

Please let me know if you still need further clarifications.

Thanks and regards,

dear
\
please note that there is no such guideline for framing the basic
the main point which is required to be kept in mind is that whether you are paying minimum wage to that candidate or not.
Also if PF is applicable to your company please make sure that the basic which you give should not be less than what the candidate was getting earlier(with previous companu) if he has worked previously (Though it is not mandatory but try to adjust accordingly)
it is always better to frame a policy indicating the range of basic salary for various levels
e.g. junior level 1500~2500
Medium Level 3000~5000
like that
Cheers

Hi,
Please let me know the writen rules from the PF department as you may be deduct PF on minimum wages, pf department only write you can diduct PF @ 12% from basic, any body send to me any notification / rules as such the employer to eligible pay PF @ 12% on minimum wages (specefic=minimum) ?
Only esi is applicable on minimum wages employer and employee share (you can show the break-up as Basic 70% and rest HRA in case the minimum wages) otherwise your salary is Rs. 20000/- then you make as under:-
Basic 50% of Rs. 20K and 40% (in non metro city) and 50% (in metro city) HRA can calculate on basic, rest you can pay as medical reimbursement @ Rs. 15000/- Per Anum {as per income tax department, if you provide the medical bills etc.] and you pay as transport allowance and special allowances. This is the organisational policy, don't worry guy's.
If any have writeen rules from government department please show me the details.
Thanks & regares
