Well, that depends on how well the management and the union (if any) have congruence on the leaves. For a smaller company, you can take into account first the National Holidays, then Major State Holidays, and later fill the rest with other Secular Holidays. Also, take into account the religion and cultural bifurcation of your employees to make a consolidated list that would be fair and just. Holidays should also be taken into account after noting your industry and customer service requirements.

Yes, 1st May is Labour Day. However, if you are in Maharashtra or Gujarat State, it is celebrated as a State Holiday as these states were officially formed on this day. Apart from this, it is internationally celebrated as "Workers/Labour Day," but it is important to note that it is not a compulsory holiday as per the national gazette.
