If there is a company having registered office in a city say delhi, and providing the services in different parts of the country say in Haryana, and employed semi skilled and skilled workers for providing the services. Does haryana wage rates would be applicable or Delhi wage rates would be applicable?
In other words, does it anything have to do where the registered office of the company is or the state where the service has been provided, matters for the purpose of payment of wages to skilled or semi skilled persons.
In the above case which state's wage rate will get applicable.

This rule is basically applied at place of works. Other tests (normally acceptable) is , if suppose the works address is registered for PF / ESI to that particular location (state), then the minimum wages act of that state will apply.

On the other hand, if everything is controlled from Delhi & PF / ESI is also registered for Delhi address, then the wages rates of Delhi will apply.
