Dear Mr. Anamika,
Please clarify your statement that partial salary to the extent of Rs10,000/- will be paid in cash. Please inform the rationale for doing so. Please note that the Central Government is insisting on the digitization of all transactions through electronic mode. Whereas you are still not digitized regarding the payment of salary to employees. Salary advances in exceptional cases can be paid in cash. However, ensure to pay the full salary in one stroke through NEFT on or before the 7th of the month if you are employing less than 1000 employees and on or before the 10th of the month if you are employing 1000 or more employees. For more information, please read The Payment of Wages Act, 1936 together with the latest amendments.

Dear Sir,
We cannot implement any policy that the government is insisting on for online transactions. However, if the Payment of Wages Act, 1936 has been amended to restrict cash payments to employees, could you please provide the relevant section/clause for the same?
Thanks

Dear All,
I am seeking clarity on the specific query regarding paying salary in cash. For instance, if someone's salary is Rs. 10,000 per month, can we pay Rs. 10,000 in cash, or is it mandatory to pay them Rs. 10,000 online as per the latest amendment in the Payment of Wages Act?
Thanks,
