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?

Dear member,
Casual and sick leave varies from company to company depending upon company policy.
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?

(a) after every twelve months of continuous employment, privilege leave for a total period of not less than fifteen days;
(b) in every year, sickness or casual leave for a total period of not less than twelve days;
Provided that:
(i) an employee who has completed a period of four months in continuous employment shall be entitled to not less than five days of privilege leave for every such completed period; and
(ii) an employee who has completed a period of one month in continuous employment shall be entitled to not less than one day's casual leave for every month.
Accumulation of leave for 3 years, i.e., 45 days.
Encashment: If an employee entitled to leave under clause (a) of sub-section (1) of this section is discharged by his employer before he has been allowed the leave, or if, having applied for and been refused the leave, he quits his employment before he has been allowed the leave, the employer shall pay him full wages for the period of leave due to him.
