My dear friend,
Every state notifies minimum wages on yearly basis. Other than Basic Wage and DA none of the other components come under minimum wages nor notify. You can give different names to different salary component provided you show basic wage and DA wages as per minimum wages notification in all the registers & reocrds pertaining to wages.
best regards,

It is not possible to one to remember all the schedules and slabs and it is not required also. A Personnel Manager is not a supernatural hero. The interviewer should not have commented on it. There should be some personal interests for him to drop you. Don't worry, you will get a better opportunity.
The Minimum EWages comprises of a basic rate of wages and a Dearness Allowance variable according to changes in cost of living index. This Variable DA is not a percentage of Basic wages but will be equal to all employed in the industry as a whole. Whatever be the composition of salary, if element of VDA is absent the same cannot be treated as minimum wages as per the Act. As such HRA cannot replace DA and even if you pay HRA to workers to whom the Minimum Wages Act applies, you have to pay VDA also. Since HRA will not take into account the cost of living index the HRA will not compensate the DA.

Hi........
If any interviewer does not want a candidate whom he is interviewing, he will ask tricky questions and put you in trouble and in the last he will say you are unprofessional. It is quite common now a days and we have to face it. This is my opinion.

Dear pulsar,
Don't regret for not knowing all the figures on your tip. It is impossible. We cannot go about memorising all byheart. Even as a HR Manager in Chennai, I don't know many of these figures so always I have a ready reckoner book (latest edition) with me for reference.
Many managers ask these just to pull off the interview time and for the sake of questioning the candidate. Many amendments in PF/ESI/P-tax etc are happening and sometimes we may not know that. So we have to cross check with updates and for that matter one cannot be scolded or humiliated. No one is perfect...!!
Incase of doubts, you can always ask the citeHR friends here or search the Net.
In the absence of pay components, the consolidated Gross itself is considered as Basic. Unless otherewise mentioned in the structure, you don't have DA/HRA/Cony?others.
So Min wages means Basic or (Basic+DA).
Keep going dear.

Well said Madhu. I think our realtime senior managers are good enough to demotivate the new comers to HR arena. It all foes with personal attitude. What to do..!!!

Hi,
If you don't have any component as D.A. in your Salary Structure then your Basic should be consisting(Basic+ DA) and yes should be as per minimum wages for any category,H.R.A. will never be considered as a D.A.
