Hi,
1. If an employee is taking leave without pay: The amount deducted will be the same as the amount paid while leave is taken with pay. It is the Gross Pay that companies consider.
2. If an employee goes for encashment of leave: This is followed as per the letter of appointment/rules of the company. Generally, companies consider Basic pay in the case of encashment of leave, which is unfair but is a fact.
Trust the above information is useful.

Dear All, Is there any provisions which may prohibit companies to encash leaves on Gross Salary instead to Basic Salary.

Hi Hema,
I will explain with an example. The gross (BASIC+ HRA+ CONV+ Spcl Allow+.....) = 20000 p.m. Per day, it is 666.66/-. If the employee has worked for 29 days, then I will pay him 666.66*29 = 19333.33/-. Hence, it's based on gross and not on basic, because when taken on gross, your basic and PF are attracted automatically. PT will not be affected. I hope I have tried to make it simple and clear.

If an employee has been on Leave Without Pay, then the total number of days taken into consideration for computing his salary for the month will be less than the number of days of LWP.
Example:
Total days in the month: 31 days
Weekly Off Days: 5 days
Holidays: 1 day
Days Present: 20 days
LWP: 5 days
Salary for him will be made for only 26 days.

Hi Hema,
LWP or LOP is usually calculated based on the gross salary. Some organizations, such as ours, consider it a welfare measure and provide a benefit where for LOP within 5 days, only the Basic and DA are deducted while other components such as HRA, conveyance, etc., are not deducted.
Good Luck!!!

Calculation of leave without pay will be based on the gross salary, for example:
Gross Salary: 8000/-
Days in a month: 30
Working Days in a month: 26
Therefore, Gross Salary would be: 8000/30*26 = 6933.33 or 6934/-
Now, the salary break-up will be calculated based on a gross salary of 6934/- for the respective month.

Regarding LWP (Leave Without Pay), it is considered as being absent from duty, and in such cases, a deduction is made from the gross salary, except for HRA. This is because an employee is required to pay house rent for the full month, whether they are on leave with pay or without pay.

Let's assume that the total number of days for which the salary is to be prepared is 30 days. An employee has been on Leave Without Pay (LWP) for 12 days. His salary will be prepared for only 28 days.
LWP will be calculated on the same basis as the days for which the employee will be paid salary for the month. Yes, it is the Gross Wages/Salary on which LWP will be calculated.

I would like to know about the calculation of LWP. As I had a discussion with a labor consultant and came to know that it should be deducted only from the basic salary, but right now I am calculating it based on the gross salary. Kindly clarify the issue.
