Dear Kartick
Please purchase a book of the Tamil Nadu Shops & Establishment bare act from a book vendor. Additionally Tamil Nadu also has its own Tamil Nadu National Holidays & Festivals Act. Suggest you purchase this also.
Exact regulatory guidelines will be given in these two acts on the number of Earned leaves, Sick Leave, Casual Leave and Holidays to be given to an employee.
Per information currently available on the citehr site & google sources, Tamil Nadu has 12 EL, 12 CL and 12 SL + 3 National & 5 Festival holidays. EL can only be availed after completion of 12 months of contiuous service and can be accumulated up to 24 days.
Every state has its own say on how many leaves an employee is eligible to and therefore there is no uniformity in the number of leaves that may be given to an employee.
Holidays appearing within the Earned leave period are generally counted as Earned leave and not treated separately as Holidays. This appears specifically in the Bombay Shops & Establishment Act, Chapter VII, Clause 35, b....
"....The leave allowed to an employee under clauses (a) and (b) shall be inclusive of the day or days during the period of such leave, on which a shop, or commercial establishment remains closed under sub-section (1) of section 18, or on which he is entitled to a holiday under sub-section (1) of section 24 or section 31....."
I am not sure if Tamil Nadu Shops & Establishment specifies this, hence you need to procure the Bare Act.

Dear Shweta,
If your unit is situated in Haryana & you are covered the Shops Act then go through section 14 of the Punjab Shops & Commercial Establishment Act, 1958 as applicable to the State of Haryana. If the number of employees is less than ten then you are to grant maternity benefit as section 31 of this Act & if the strength is ten or more then in that case adhere to Maternity Benefit Act, 1961. If your management is interested in giving additional leaves under any of the heads then you are to make Rules/ policy otherwise grant leaves as per the applicable Act & Rules.
With Regards,
