Please tell me is there a statutory last day for disbursing salary for a company with approx. 80 employees and where the average salary amount is more than 10k. Is there any statutory sealing of salary in this regard?

As per payment of wages act, for an establishment employing less than 1000 employees; monthly wages shall be paid by the 7th of next month; and if the strength is more than 1000; then wages must be paid by the 10th of next month of which wages are due.

Dear Ropan
In continuation of reply by Rahul, please note that here not the date but period is important . The Act says payment should be made within 7 days from the last payment date.

Hi Rahul, Thanks for the quick response. But is this condition of 1000 employees and 7th of the month is valid only up to salary of 10k?
