Case Comment on Ajay Bansal vs State

Ajay Bansal vs State is based on the concept of minimum wages and scheduled employment. This case also determines the relationship between the Minimum Wages Act and Delhi Shops and Establishment Act in relation to minimum wages. The main issue which was revolved in this case is whether the petrol pump comes under the aegis of scheduled employment and whether the meaning of “wages” is the same under the Minimum Wages Act and Delhi Shop and Establishment Act. The final judgment came in support of the employees, and it was held that minimum wages should be paid to employees, and the petrol pump comes under the ambit of scheduled employment.
