This dataset presents the average daily wage earnings during the preceding calendar month from regular wage/salaried employment among the regular wage/salaried employees in CWS for each State/ UT. For 2023-24, Chandigarh's entire area has been considered urban for this survey. Before 2019-20, Ladakh was part of Jammu and Kashmir, and since 2020-21, Daman and Diu have been merged with Dadra and Nagar Haveli to form the union territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu.
NB: Survey years previously followed a July–June cycle (e.g., 2023–24 refers to July 2023–June 2024). From 2025 onward, data is reported on a calendar-year basis (January–December). Further, quarterly data is not available in the 2025 report.
