India leave policy has state-mandated minimums.

Each Indian state mandates a specific number of public holidays (typically 10-14) plus statutory leave types under the Shops & Establishments Act of that state. The composition varies: Karnataka mandates 12 holidays plus 18 leave days; Maharashtra mandates 8 holidays plus 21 leave days; Tamil Nadu mandates 13 holidays plus 12 leave days. Versatile holds the registrations and maintains state-specific compliant leave policies for every operating state.

Public holidays, state-mandated

Karnataka: 12. Maharashtra: 8. Tamil Nadu: 13. Telangana: 11. Delhi: 12 (variable by year). Each state's mandated list is published annually.

Casual leave (CL), typically 7-12 days

Short-notice leave for personal needs. Mandated by state Shops & Establishments Act with specific minimums.

Sick leave (SL), typically 7-12 days

For medical illness. Carries forward partly in some states.

Earned leave (EL/PL), typically 12-21 days

Vacation leave that accrues monthly. Encashment rules vary by state.

Maternity, 26 weeks paid

India Maternity Benefit Act mandates 26 weeks of paid maternity leave. Full backfill cost is absorbed by Versatile during the leave period.

Paternity / bereavement, policy-set

Not statutorily mandated; set by employer policy. Versatile recommends 5-10 days paternity, 3-5 days bereavement to match Indian market norms.

Questions we hear most.

Does Versatile maintain a leave register for my India employees?
Yes. Every leave taken is logged in the Versatile payroll register, tagged by leave type (CL, SL, EL, maternity, paternity, bereavement). The register feeds into Form 16 cycle (for tax-exempt leave types) and the exit Full and Final Settlement calculation.
Yes. The state-mandated minimums are the floor. Above that, customers typically apply company-wide policies (e.g., 25 days of earned leave instead of 21). Versatile administers whatever policy you set, as long as it meets or exceeds the state minimums.
India's Maternity Benefit Act mandates 26 weeks of paid maternity leave. Versatile absorbs the full backfill cost during the leave period; no cost adjustment to your invoice. The maternity leave does not interrupt service continuity for gratuity purposes.
No. Leave taken on these statutory types is paid at full salary, which is taxed normally under the TDS slabs. Leave encashment at exit is taxed differently (and partially exempt).
