Provided further that a worker, who has applied for leave with wages but has not been given such leave in accordance with any scheme laid down in sub-sections (8) and (9) or in contravention of sub-section (10) shall be entitled to carry forward the leave refused without any limit.

(6) A worker may at any time apply in writing to the manager of a factory not less than fifteen days before the date on which he wishes his leave to begin, to take all the leave or any portion thereof allowable to him during the calendar year :

Provided that the application shall be made not less than thirty days before the date on which the worker wishes his leave to begin, if he is employed in a public utility service as defined in clause (n) of section 2 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (14 of 1947) :

Dear
Above formula which you have mentioned is related to calculation for Gratuity but with below correction:
Basic * 15 / 26 x No.of Years worked
In our company, we are using below Formula to calculate EL:
=no. of EL balance/260 days (working days in a year) x Gross salary or CTC (annual)
however, some companies divided balance leaves by full year
Thanks

Dear K.SAIKISHORE
Go through Chapter salary in taxation book..
Leave encashment is the salary received by an individual for leave period. It is a chargeable income whether he is a government employee or not. Under section 10(10AA) (i) there is also a provision of exemption in case of leave encashment depending upon whether he is a government employee or other employees.
