Understanding HRA: How Is It Calculated When There's a Loss of Pay Due to Leave?

If the employee is not present for the full month, the leave results in a loss of pay. Is the HRA amount eligible? If so, how is the HRA amount calculated—based on working days or a flat rate?

All salary components will be calculated based on actual working days only and not on a fixed/flat amount or rate.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

All salary components will be calculated based on the actual days to pay (working days + approved leaves), but subject to the concept of monthly 26 days calculation or 30, 31, 28 days calculation. As HRA is a component and part of the salary, even if an employee has LOPs, they will receive HRA like other components.
