Dear Sonu Sharma ji,
You are HR Executive. You should answer to the questions of members. Or atleast do some self study before asking any question of basic nature.
Our learned members Shrinath Sai Ram has though answered you rightly, I giving below the Section 2(n) which defines wages, verbatim.
Wages includes all remuneration that means includes Basic Wages, all such allowances (including dearness allowance and house rent allowance), incentive bonus and the money value of concessional supply of food grains and other articles.
