Minimum wages

State, zone, skill — shops vs industrial.

One statewide rate for each grade; the notification sets no zones.

Per month, and per day, fixed with immediate effect from 14 June 2019. These rates come from Notification No. LAB-1/6/2004 (Pt-II) of 14 June 2019, made under sub-section (1) of section 5 read with clause (b) of the Minimum Wages Act, 1948 and approved by the Cabinet vide O.M. No. CAB-2/2013(Pt) of 12 June 2019. It supersedes Notification No. LAB-1/6/2004 (Vol-III) of 31 October 2012. One table of three grades applies across all 19 scheduled employments, which were themselves revised to the National Industrial Classification of 2008.

Skill	Statewide
unskilled	₹5,280 / month₹176.00 / day
Semi-skilled	₹6,300 / month₹210.00 / day
skilled	₹7,050 / month₹235.00 / day

The same notification also says

The monthly figure is thirty times the daily rate in every grade, and the notification prints both.
The notification is expressed to be "in partial modification to" the Department's own notification dated 12 June 2019 — an instrument issued two days earlier which this desk does not hold. What that notification said, and what these rates changed about it, is therefore unknown and is not guessed at here.
The nineteen scheduled employments are listed by the notification itself, and include all establishments covered by the Nagaland Shops & Establishment Act, 1986 — which is how this desk knows Nagaland has its own shops legislation, though its text could not be obtained.
The copy held is the departmental one. It directs the Publisher of the Nagaland Gazette to publish it in the next issue, so the gazette version is a separate document this desk does not hold.
Only three grades are fixed — unskilled, semi-skilled and skilled. There is no highly skilled rate and none is shown.

Nagaland's own rules · researched

The table above is from the state's own published minimum wage notification. Everything below is Nagaland-specific, researched and not yet checked against an official source.

2019 rates, and a currency that could not be checked at all

Everything on this page comes from Notification No. LAB-1/6/2004 (Pt-II) of 14 June 2019, Labour & Employment, Skill Development & Entrepreneurship Department, Government of Nagaland, made under sub-section (1) of section 5 read with clause (b) of the Minimum Wages Act, 1948, approved by the Cabinet, and superseding Notification No. LAB-1/6/2004 (Vol-III) of 31 October 2012. At ₹176 a day for unskilled work these are the lowest figures this desk carries for any State or Union territory. Ordinarily this desk would check a State's own website to see whether a later revision has issued, and report that nothing newer was found. For Nagaland it could not even do that: labour.nagaland.gov.in and nagaland.gov.in both accept a connection and then never complete a request — the certificate is valid, but no content is served, checked on 28 September 2026. So nothing here is established as current, and nothing is claimed to be. The document itself carries no usable text layer and was read from page images at 300 dots per inch.

Nagaland's published minimum wage rates date from 2019 and are the lowest on this desk. Whether anything newer exists could not be established, because no Nagaland government website could be reached.

The rates, from 14 June 2019

Unskilled: ₹5,280 a month · ₹176 a dayThe notification prints both: ₹176 × 30 = ₹5,280.Notification No. LAB-1/6/2004 (Pt-II) of 14 June 2019, Labour & Employment, Skill Development & Entrepreneurship Department, Government of Nagaland
Semi-Skilled: ₹6,300 a month · ₹210 a dayThe notification prints both: ₹210 × 30 = ₹6,300.Notification No. LAB-1/6/2004 (Pt-II) of 14 June 2019, Labour & Employment, Skill Development & Entrepreneurship Department, Government of Nagaland
Skilled: ₹7,050 a month · ₹235 a dayThe notification prints both: ₹235 × 30 = ₹7,050.Notification No. LAB-1/6/2004 (Pt-II) of 14 June 2019, Labour & Employment, Skill Development & Entrepreneurship Department, Government of Nagaland
A highly skilled rate: Not yet addedThe notification fixes three grades only. There is no highly skilled rate and none is shown.
Whether these are still the current rates: Could not be checkedNeither labour.nagaland.gov.in nor nagaland.gov.in serves any content — both accept a connection and then never complete a request, and the certificates are valid, so this is not a security refusal but an unresponsive server. For every other jurisdiction on this desk it has been possible at least to establish that nothing newer was published. For Nagaland it was not, and that is a weaker position, stated as such.Checked 28/09/2026

How the list was drawn: Revised as per NIC Code 2008The notification's own heading is that this is the list of scheduled employments revised as per the National Industrial Classification of 2008, which is why the entries read as industry classes rather than as trades.Notification No. LAB-1/6/2004 (Pt-II) of 14 June 2019, Labour & Employment, Skill Development & Entrepreneurship Department, Government of Nagaland
Nagaland's shops legislation: Nagaland Shops & Establishment Act, 1986Named by the notification itself, as the second of the nineteen scheduled employments.
