As per the rules for encashment of Earned Leave at the time of availing LTC, the government servant can encash up to 10 days of EL. A key condition is that the balance of Earned Leave at the credit of the government servant should not fall below 30 days *after* taking into account the period of encashment as well as leave being availed of. Therefore, a balance of at least 30 days should be available to the government servant’s credit after these deductions.
The rule for EL encashment during LTC requires a minimum residual balance of 30 days of EL.
