Hi Folks,

I am currently working in a software company since December 2010. I have been receiving a very low salary per month since joining, with only a $1000 increment each year so far. Additionally, I am unaware of the minimum salary set by the government of Tamil Nadu. With a total experience of 3.6 years, my current monthly salary is only $6500.

Could anyone please assist me with this? Kindly inform me about the minimum salary mandated by the Indian government for private employees.

Thanks in advance.

Hi I believe the minimum wages in Tamil Nadu will be as around 6000/-. Once again it depends on the work profile too.

Are you working in software development or in some other profile? If you are working in programming, then the salary you are getting is surprisingly low.

Please give further details of your job, skillset, and position. However, to answer your direct question - State Government issues a notification every 6 months giving the amount of minimum wages payable for each zone (4 zones in TN), Skill Category, and Industry. You need to look at the latest notification and identify the relevant salary levels.

Please remember that the notification talks only in terms of Basic + DA. So your Basic + DA in your salary must be above the minimum limit specified in the notification. If you have other allowances in your salary, they are not to be counted for this purpose.
