My employer, ASM Enterprise Pvt Ltd Bengaluru, states that according to company leave policies, I am eligible for PL encashment only if I have served for one year and six months. I haven't seen any such conditions in my offer letter, only the general condition that I need to comply with company leave policies.
During my employment, I was working on a contract for my company's Mumbai client. Due to the pandemic, there were IT budget issues, and the work contract with the client was terminated, leading to my employer, ASM Enterprise Pvt Ltd, relieving me after a one-month notice period.
My final settlement has been processed; however, the PL encashment, which I believe I am eligible for according to government rules for private companies on leave encashment, has not been included. Can you please clarify this?
Additionally, are there any legal steps I can take against my employer for releasing me without providing any valid reason in writing?

Mr. Srinivasan,
You have not mentioned your duration of working. PL is your earned leave, and you are eligible after one year. During the year, you have to work 180 days, previously it was 240 days. As per the rule, you are not eligible if you have not completed the required number of days in a year as mentioned above. Please share the leave policy of your company.

Thank you Ji, and yes, I have completed 1 year, 3 months, and 11 days. However, I was surprised to see that my PL/EL was not encashed, citing the company's leave policy of 1.6 years completion for eligibility. Now, I am relieved from service, and the finance department is saying they CANNOT share any company leave policy.
