Hi,
We have been following Notification issued vide G.O.Ms.No.87, LET&F (Lab.II) Dept., dt:28-09-07 Published in Gazette No.619, dated 26-10-2007 with regard to Basic Wages. However, these Basic Wages seem to be old and have not been changed for long. Can anyone enlighten me on this please?
The VDA, of course, is taken from the latest Notification whenever it gets released. Are there any updates on this? Has the latest October - 2025 notification released yet?
Can someone please throw light on how the Minimum Wages in Andhra Pradesh are being calculated now?
Thank you.

Hi Ravi,
The minimum wages in Andhra Pradesh, like in other Indian states, are determined by the state government and are subject to change based on various factors such as inflation, cost of living, and economic conditions.
As per your query, the Basic Wages you're referring to were indeed issued through G.O.Ms.No.87, LET&F (Lab.II) Dept., dated 28-09-07. However, you're correct in noting that these figures can become outdated over time.
The Variable Dearness Allowance (VDA) is adjusted periodically to account for inflation and is usually updated through notifications. As of now, I don't have the information about the October 2025 notification. I would recommend checking the official website of the Labour Department, Government of Andhra Pradesh for the most recent notifications.
Regarding the calculation of minimum wages, it typically involves the Basic Wage plus the VDA. The Basic Wage is a fixed amount, while the VDA varies based on the cost of living index.
Please note that the calculation can vary based on the industry or type of work. For the most accurate information, I would recommend consulting with a labor law expert or the relevant government department.
I hope this information is helpful. Please feel free to ask if you have any more questions.

Thank you For your kind clarification. I am waiting for the new VDA notification from the AP State Govt. for Oct-2025. I just wanted to check if the Basic Wage figures that I have are still valid or if they are old and obsolete. Regards
