Dear Sir, Can you clarify me on leave encashment? Whether an employee is liable to get all balance earned leave payment when an employer releases the employee from its firm? Thank you

An employee worked for three (3) years. He is entitled to 3 days per month of Earned Leave (EL). He did not take any leave for the last three years. Now he is leaving the company. Is he entitled to leave encashment of 36 * 3 = 108 days of EL? If so, is it taxable as per the rules of the Income Tax Act?
Your kind comments on this are invited.
Thanking you,

Yes, an employee is "entitled" to receive payment for their unused leave through Leave Encashment. However, some companies have strict policies regarding Leave Encashment. For instance, if an employee leaves during the probation period, they may not be eligible for Leave Encashment. Additionally, if an employee absconds, they will not be entitled to any Leave Encashment.
