Dear Professionals,
I need a clarification on National & Festival Holiday pay ?
i. NH/FH - leave given
ii. NH/FH - Factory run (Form V-A Submitted)
In both categories, is basic pay alone enough, or should we pay from gross?
Kindly advice..

Please read section 5 of the TN Industrial Estts (National & Festival Holidays') Act, 1958 attached where the relevant information is provided for- .
Wages. —(1) Notwithstanding any contract to the contrary, every employee shall be paid wages for each of the holidays allowed to him under 1[section 3 or 3A]1. (a) twice the wages; or (b) wages for such day and to avail himself of a substituted holiday with wages on any other day.
What is the factory wages Act 1948?
The Factories Act, 1948, mandates the payment of minimum wages to the workers by prescribing a fixed pay rate. An employer shall pay their employees at least the prescribed minimum wage rate. If an employee is paid less than minimum wage, the employer should pay that employee at least what the law requires.

Yes, VJ, what i have said is the wages payable for a holiday should be the same wages which is not paid when a worker remains absent. Obviously, if a worker employed on a wages of Rs 600 per day takes a leave, you will deduct Rs 600, and not just the basic pay, ie, Rs 450 alone. Therefore, if the wages per day is Rs 600, this should be the wages payable on holidays also. If you mean to interpret the wages as basic wages and whatever you pay are allowances, then you will have to pay allowances for such days the worker remains on leave, that you can deduct only the basic wages for the days of absence from the monthly total wages payable.
