The fault lines in the approach to understanding wage disparity are exposed in its once-too-often overlooking of the sociopolitical realities of their subjects. The paper aims to bring out the wage discrimination in Indian labour market in both rural and urban areas belonging to different occupational activities using the simple ordinary least square regression analysis and Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition method to show that the wage disparity among different social groups can be attributed to discrimination. – Reproduced Wage, Disparity, Caste, Labour, Discrimination, Decomposition, Blinder–Oaxaca 21936 The Indian Journal of Labour Economics LABOUR MARKETS - INDIA AR 0 0 ddc 0 0 389931 IIPA IIPA 2021-02-09 63(1), Jan-Mar, 2020: p.177-188 AR124222 2021-02-09 AR
