Dear All,
Please reply: Ram worked on two Sundays in that same month. That means he is eligible for 2 compensatory leaves. As per our company rules, any employee who has earned any Comp. Leave can avail the same within the financial year. Now, my question is, if the employee takes leave on 14 and 16 August 2017, will the intervening holiday on 15 August be considered as part of the leave? Please reply.

Dear Ratandeep,
Ideally, you can allow him to take that leave, and you should not consider 15 August as a day off. Since you are offering compensatory time off for working on the weekly day off, you can treat that as working time and grant him permission accordingly.
Thank you.

Dear Ratnadeep,
The person has taken a comp day off and not any other leave. The comp day off stands alone; it is not merged with any other leave. So, the days will be standalone, and therefore it will not be accounted for as straight leave. Also, 15th August will be a holiday and not a leave, as the 14th and 16th are not leaves but adjustments against comp days off.

14th and 16th are in lieu of working on a holiday. Then why to club 15th aug and count them as 3 days leaves? It shouldn’t be done!

Dear friend,
It would be wrong to equate 'leave' with 'compensatory off' as both are different. Compensatory off (CO) is legally entitled for having worked on a weekly off and can certainly be sandwiched with a paid holiday, here it is a National holiday. Leave rules differ from organization to organization and may or may not permit sandwiching a paid holiday with any type of leave.
