Dear Ankush,
There is nothing like "Marriage Leave". The only leave that an employee gets is earned leave. The employee needs to manage his/her personal matters like marriage or otherwise within this quota. Roughly speaking, for the 20 days of attendance, an employee becomes eligible to get a day's leave. Please note that Sunday is a weekly off and it cannot be considered as leave. There are 365 days in a year. Of these, 52 are Sundays, and if you exclude these, the number of working days reduces to 313. Now, there are 10 closed holidays, which must be given. If you exclude these, the number of working days reduces to 303. If you divide by 20, it comes to 15. Therefore, each employee is eligible to take 15 days of paid leave per annum. The purpose of the leave could be anything.
Notwithstanding my calculation given above, I recommend you check the provisions of the Shops and Establishment Act or Factories Act applicable to your business establishment.
Thanks,

Those companies that do not have a proper leave policy often implement a "marriage leave policy." For example, many proprietorship companies follow this practice. The duration of leave granted varies from company to company. In a proprietorship company where I previously worked, employees (male/female) were entitled to two weeks of paid leave upon getting married while in service.
Thank you.
