I would like to know how many leaves are mandatory in IT Industries in a year?
I have heard as per Bombay Shop Establishment Act there is a provision of minimum 21 days leaves that an employer should give to their employees. Can I know the Section and Sub-Section of such law?
Is it including Government Holidays?
Is it applicable to IT Industries?
Please shade some light on this.

A reading of Maharastra Shops and Establishment Act 2017 is essential for every HR official.
If you read it many basic doubts will be cleared.
