Your concern authority minimum wage for PF and ESI is 11300/- then you fix minimum wage 11300/- or you may get sub code for the concern authority where minimum wage is 7400. Thanks Manish

Dear Friend,
Minimum wage is a mandatory limit that you can not pay less than the minimum wages, but the MW Act does not prevent employers from paying more.
You can pay the minimum wages of UP and you will be legally compliant.
Please compare what you are paying for the same job in Karnataka, then you should pay the same to the employee. (just a suggestion)
Warm Regards
