1. Paid leave to be paid only on Basic Salary - Will depend upon company policy.
2. While calculating the paid leave - Leave Without Pay days to be reduced to arrive the correct paid leave - Yes LWP need to reduce to calculate Paid Leaves
3. Paid leave to be paid only after completion of one year - As per new amendment in Factories Act after 03 months working employee will be entitled for Paid Leaves
4. Paid leave to be paid seperately and not to include in Regular salary as all other allowance is included in the payroll - Till accumulation limit is not reached you can not en cash paid leaves

Thanks Mr.Prashant. Point No.4 - What is the accumulation and Accumulation limit? When emploee can encash the leave?
If the staff is completing only 6-7 months service - How many days leave accumulation?
As the Paid leave is paid on basic salary - This will be paid seperately and not with payroll.
Thanks
