First remember casual leave is not a regular leave and tell me in which Govt.department there is facility of encashing CASUAL LEAVE. Govt.Order in this regard is quite clear………

For calculating the amount due for the encashment of earned leave our office has taken the number of days in a month as 31 since the facility was availed in the month of December. By the same rule a person availing the facility in February will get more money than a person availing the facility in January, which sounds absurd. I find that the the fomula for computing encashment fo earned leave at the time of retirement is (monthly salary/30)*number of days of EL to be encashed.
Is there a clear cut order which says that the number of days in a month that should be taken while computing the amount due while encashing the EL with LTC is
30?. If there is any, please send me the details so that I can pass them to the administration.
