Dear Harkishan
As per the provisions of Employees' Provident Funds & Miscellenaous Provisions Act, 1952, the management can bifurcate the minimum wages into Basic, HRA, Conv. only, no other head is allowed. Further, if we have not birfucated the minimum wages of some employees/ worker and the management has paid consolidated, then the management cannot birfucated the same, but the management can birfucated the minimum wages for the employee who will join in future.

Dear Neeraj
I want to clarify the situation before we are advising that the management cannot birfurcate the minimum wages according to the judgement passed by the Hon'ble Employees' Provident Fund Appellate Tribunal, New Delhi in the matter titled as M/S JMA industries Ltd. FBD, Haryana. But, the month of February, 2011 Hon'ble Punjab & Haryana High Court has given a clear judgement on this point and it has been decided that the management can birfurcate the minimum wages of an employee and in view of the judgement the management can birfurcate the minimum wages. So, you are advised to birfurcate the minimum wages till no other judgment / decision is passed by Hon'ble Punjab & Haryana High Court and / or Hon'ble Supreme Court of India on this point.

Dear Manish
The minimum wages is in punjab is Rs. 3850/-, then you have keep the
Basic Rs. 2700/-
HRA Rs. 850/- (the HRA should be approximately 25% to 40% of basic salary)
Conv. Rs. 300/- (the Conv. should be approximately 10% to 20% of basic salary)
Nothing is specify the percentage of birfurcation of minimum wages in any rule. But we have to decide the same according to the parameter mentioned in the Income Tax Rules.
