Hi,
I work for an MNC and our corporate handbook (released about 2 months back) says that there is no leave encashment for staff.
However, this is a very standard practice in India. I would like to know the statutory regulation with regard to leave encashment.
Is it mandatory as per law. If yes, which act and what section.
We are not a factory but a software development house in Chennai.
Thanks

I have checked the Punjab shops and establishment act, (applicable in Haryana also). Leave encashment is not legally compulsory. We are not paying encashment. EL can be accumulated upto 30 days.
