A proposed wage revision could add a significant amount to an undertaking's annual salary bill. The increase is estimated to be around ₹1,111 crore per year. This includes ₹475 crore to achieve pay parity for approximately 9,000 wet-lease workers, most of whom are drivers.

The proposal aims to bring these workers' pay scales in line with those of permanent employees performing similar tasks. The revision would cover around 38,200 employees and workers, with around 27,000 regular employees expected to benefit from a retrospective wage revision.

Further details about the proposal and its consideration by relevant authorities are available from the source.
