When wages must hit the account.

West Bengal Shops and Establishments Act, 1963

When wages are paid: Not later than the 10th day of the month after the month they are payable forThis comes from the Labour Department's reprint of the Act in the West Bengal Labour Gazette 2011. Its footnotes run to the amending Act of 2002, so an amendment after that would not appear in this copy; and the scan carries a previous reader's yellow highlighting on the page dealing with the recovery of wages. Neither affects the figures above, and both are said here so the copy can be judged.Section 14(1)
If they are not: The employee may apply to the appointed authority within six months, and the authority may order the wages paid with compensation of up to ten times the amount deductedSection 14(2) and (3)
Who this does not cover: A person to whom the Payment of Wages Act, 1936 applies is outside this sectionSection 14(7)
Notice of termination: After a year's continuous service, one month's written notice giving reasons, or wages in lieu, with a right of appealSection 15
