Hi ANONYMOUS,
In Karnataka, there is no separate schedule of employment under IT/BPO. Hence, most of the organizations follow Shops & Establishment minimum wages.
Hi Neyim Khan,
Minimum wages in Karnataka are revised every April based on the CPI points. However, in 2017, they revised the Basic salary and DA (Rs.367) as it had been more than 5 years since such a revision had occurred. Additional DA from Apr'18 to Mar'19 is Rs.317, making the total DA Rs.683.
Hope I clarified.

Thank you to Ram Sir for clarifying about IT, BT Cos. and MW in Karnataka, and also regarding the recent revision of MW by the Karnataka Government. As the number of IT, BT, MNC Cos. is increasing and a lot of employees are working in them, it would be beneficial for the Karnataka Government to establish separate MW for them. Some companies pay well, while others pay less due to lack of regulation. I request seniors to provide guidance.

Dear Amith,
You have not furnished valid reasons for non-implementation. I presume that it is not for bonafide reasons. You are liable to pay the difference in minimum wages. Additionally, the authority under the Minimum Wages Act can impose a penalty of 10 times the short payment. Consequently, please implement the applicable minimum wages from the date notified.

Minimum wage is a poor way to reduce inequality and boost incomes for the poor. When I had to do my finance assignment, I realized EITC and direct cash transfers are far preferable, especially since it is a fairly simple mechanism to set up and would not distort the labor market.
One problem though! It is politically impossible, thanks in large part to the type of work organizations like the American Enterprise Institute undertake. EITC and cash transfers are seen as welfare for undeserving losers. To boost payments, taxes would have to go up on high-income earners, another impossibility.
