Check labor laws in your location. In India, labor laws require encashment. If company refuses, file a legal complaint with labor board. Consult labor lawyer if amount is large.
How do I know my leave balance?
Check your HRIS (HR portal), payslip, or email HR directly. Most HR systems show balance. Always verify before exit; discrepancies should be flagged immediately.
Can I carry over leave to next year?
Depends on company policy. Some allow carryover (with limits). Some don't. Some allow "once-in-lifetime" carryover on exit. Clarify with HR early.
Does leave encashment affect my tax?
Yes. Leave encashment is taxable income. It's included in your final settlement and affects your last month's tax bracket. Consult tax advisor for exact impact.
