When I joined my office, I was informed that I was entitled to a total of 21 days of leave. I was given my appointment letter with Annexure - 1, which detailed my salary breakdown, and was asked to sign below it.
After approximately 2 years, I have been informed suddenly that I was never entitled to any leave. The Annexure - 1 specifies that my leave salary is zero, indicating that I am not entitled to any leave as per the document. When I questioned the HR about this, asking if everyone in the office is entitled to leave except me, she responded with a "Yes."
My appointment letter does not mention anything else regarding my leave entitlement apart from this Annexure - 1, where my leave salary is stated as zero in the salary breakdown. Is this legal and compliant with laws in India? What steps should I take next?
