The details of average daily earnings   (in Rs.) of the workers are as follows as per Labour Bureau Report, 2007-08 on Average Daily Earnings:

All  India : 186.86
Public Sector : 398.67      
Joint  Sector : 377.76
Private Sector : 182.11

In order to have a uniform wage structure and to reduce the disparity in minimum wages across the country, concept of National Floor Level Minimum Wage was mooted on the basis of the recommendations of the National Commission on Rural Labour (NCRL) in 1991. On the basis of increase in the Consumer Price Index, the Central Government has recently revised the National Floor Level Minimum Wages to Rs.115/- per day with effect from 01.04.2011.

This information was given by the Minister of Labour and Employment Shri   Mallikarjun Kharge  in reply in reply to a written question in the Lok Sabha today.
