Can you please help me with the provisions for casual, sick and earned leaves in Delhi. Also, what are laws related to accumulation and encashment of sick leaves?

Casual and sick leave varies from company to company depending upon company policy.
EL Calculations and Accumulation
With regard to EL calculations and accumulation of EL, please refer to the Factories Act. You can also refer to the Shops and Commercial Establishment Act and Delhi rules if they apply. EL encashment will be based on gross salary/wages.

Thanks for your input. Can the sick leaves be accumulated and carried forward to the next year?
