Dear All,
We are an NGO assisting the Central and State Governments with the supply of midday meals to Government-aided Municipality/Zilla Parishad schools (primary and secondary schools) through many centralized kitchens located in different states.
Under which category are we to pay wages to our labor under the Minimum Wages Act? We have a Shop and Establishment License.

Dear Balaji,
I am not sure whether you've registered your centralized kitchens in the respective State's Shops & Establishments Act. If so, you have to pay the minimum rates fixed by the respective State.
Thank you.

Dear Umakanthan Sir,
If an organization is registered with the Shop and Establishment Act of the respective state, then the wages to be paid to its labor should be according to the wages fixed by the respective state from time to time.

With due respect to Mr. Umakanthan, I would like to differ. Since the NGO operates across many states, the appropriate government for them is the Central government. Hence, they must pay wages as notified by the central govt but, of course, subject to the rates of the respective states, whichever is higher.
