Goa minimum wages: ₹561 a day unskilled in Zone A, on a dearness allowance the notification tells you when to expect
Goa sets its wages in two instruments. Notification 24/21/2009-LAB-III/(01)/551 of 10.08.2023, in the Official Gazette Series I No. 19 (Extraordinary No. 2) of 11 August 2023, fixes the basic rates per day for employment in any shop and commercial establishment other than a residential hotel, restaurant or eating house: ₹412 unskilled, ₹473 semi-skilled and ₹528 skilled in Zone A, each ₹5 less in Zone B, with clerical staff on the skilled rate. The Commissioner's order CLE/PA/MWA-VDA/(10)/2016/1547 of 29.04.2026 then sets the variable dearness allowance at ₹149 a day from 1 April 2026, so the totals are ₹561, ₹622 and ₹677 a day in Zone A. The notification's clause (VII) makes a month the daily rate times 26, its clause (VIII) has the rates include the weekly day of rest, and its clause (IV) requires the same rate for male, female and transgender workers doing similar work. The allowance moves by ₹0.95 for every index point beyond 379, and the notification fixes its own revision dates — 1 April and 1 October each year.
