Hi,

How does PL encashment work in companies? Does it need to be calculated on the basic or on gross? Does PL encashment need to be deducted with both PF and ESI? Please clarify these issues.

Dear Chitra,

PL encashment is done on BASIC + DA only. No deduction should be made on PL encashment. PL encashment depends on company policy. Each company will allow for some accumulations over & above they will encash. Also, on exit while doing Full & Final Settlement, whatever PL is left over will be encashed.

Chitra, PL is calculated on monthly salary. Equation: Monthly Salary (Basic+DA) x PL Days/30 Days PF and ESIC is not deductible on this amount. Vishal

Dear,

First of all, whether PL encashment is done on basic or gross depends upon your company policy because the law is not clear on it. Some companies pay it on gross, and some on basic.

The number of leaves as per the Shop and Establishment Act is not fixed, as different states have different quantum of leave.

Thank you.
