Dears,
Under Employee’s Compensation Act, 1923 the monthly wages limit has been enhanced form Rs.4000/- to Rs.8000/- w.e.f. 31/05/2010
1. Is there any recent change in the ceiling on monthly wages?
2. Is the monthly wages only Basic + DA as per MW Act or Gross Saalry (Basic + DA + HRA+ Conveyance + Special Allowance + other allowance)
Please clarify.

Dear Mr.Saikumar,
Thanks for your kind information.
1. I want to know whether there is any change (amendment) in ceiling of salary (above Rs.8000/-)
2. In case of a workman who is eligible for compensation under this act receiving gross salary (for example) Rs. 10000 per month (Basic Rs.3000, HRA Rs.2000, CCA Rs.3000, Conveyance Rs.800 and Special Allowance Rs.1200). What are the components to be taken into account to calculate compensation?
Please explain.
