Dear Abedeen,
Greetings for the day,
There is two separate point you have raised one is under the payment of wages act & other is payment of minimum wages act.
1) Payment of minimum wages explains that you can't pay any workman less than that. Secondly the basic rate can't be kept less than minimum wages which is revising time to time by the state government i.e need not to pay DA separately merge it with basic. As far as statutory deductions is concern deduction of EPF can be done through it, computation of bonus, gratuity can be done on the basis of minimum wages (basic+da).
2) As far as payment of wages is concern it is consist with the various component of salary namely HRA, Conveyance other Allowances including basic salary. Only ESIC deduction can be done on the same and leave encasement payment is done on the same.
Net payable is the payment received after deductions of various liabilities EPF,ESIC,TDS & Advances etc and it can only be possible after the finalization of salary & wages.
Thanks & Regards,
