A leave encashment calculator prices each unused earned-leave day at the employee's daily basic rate and adds them into one payout figure. Compute leave encashment on exit or year-end. India = per-day basic × accrued leave days. UAE = per-day basic × accrued leave per Labour Law. Free, instant.
Leave encashment calculator in brief
Leave encashment calculator figures from WappBlaster rest on a per-day basic rate: monthly basic divided by 26 in India, where Sundays drop out of the working-day model, or by 30 in the UAE, where Labour Law counts calendar days. That daily rate is multiplied by unused earned leave to give the cash due at separation or, where company policy allows, at year-end. For Indian private-sector staff, the Finance Act 2023 raised the lifetime tax exemption on encashment from ₹3 lakh to ₹25 lakh, so most exit payouts stay untaxed. UAE employees accrue 30 calendar days of paid leave a year once their first year is complete, and any balance left on exit joins gratuity in the final settlement. Casual and sick leave generally lapse rather than convert. The free WappBlaster payroll tool needs only jurisdiction, basic and leave balance, and returns both the daily rate and the total so each step can be checked.
A leave encashment calculator is a tool that converts unused earned leave into a cash amount by multiplying a per-day basic wage by the leave days still due.
WappBlaster made this leave encashment calculator free for India and the UAE, using a 26-day divisor for Indian pay and a 30-day divisor for UAE pay.
An employee serving notice can see roughly what unused earned leave should add to the final payout.
Payroll staff handling both countries switch the jurisdiction and the divisor changes with it.
The daily basic figure appears with the total, which makes errors in the monthly basic easy to spot.
UAE final settlements need both numbers, and the gratuity calculator sits one link away.
Leave encashment converts accrued unused earned leave into a cash payment, either at year-end (if policy permits) or at separation. India: per-day basic × accrued leave days, governed by state shops-and-establishment acts and company policy. UAE: per-day basic × accrued leave days under the UAE Labour Law (30 calendar days per year accrual).
Indian employee with Rs. 30000 monthly basic and 25 days accrued earned leave on exit: Per-day basic = 30,000 ÷ 26 ≈ Rs. 1154. Encashment = 1,154 × 25 = Rs. 28850 (within Rs. 25 lakh lifetime exemption). UAE employee with AED 6000 basic and 18 accrued leave days: Per-day basic = 6,000 ÷ 30 = AED 200. Encashment = 200 × 18 = AED 3600.
For the rest of a final settlement, try the overtime pay calculator, and read where attendance in India and the UAE is heading or shift attendance for hospitals and clinics.
| Feature | What it means | Where to find it |
|---|---|---|
| Jurisdiction | Picks Indian or UAE rules, which changes the per-day divisor. | The country of your employment contract. |
| Monthly basic | Basic wage per month; in India this usually includes DA for statutory sums. | Your payslip or the pay section of the employment contract. |
| Accrued leave days | Earned leave you have built up and not taken. | The leave balance in your HR portal or the leave register kept by HR. |
Yes for earned leave (EL) under most state shops-and-establishment acts. Casual and sick leave typically lapse and are not encashed by default. Policy can be more generous than statute.
Link to this answerGovernment employees: fully exempt. Private-sector salaried: exempt up to Rs. 25 lakh lifetime cap (raised from Rs. 3 lakh in Finance Act 2023). Excess taxable as 'income from salary'.
Link to this answerSame formula and exemption pool. Year-end encashment is a policy choice; exit encashment is statutory for earned leave under most Indian states.
Link to this answerUAE Labour Law mandates 30 calendar days of paid annual leave after one year of service. Accrued unused leave is encashable on exit at per-day basic. Some contracts pay leave salary annually; others accrue to exit.
Link to this answerIndia: 26 (excludes Sundays in the working-day model). UAE: 30 (calendar-day basis under Labour Law). Confirm per company policy if it differs from the default.
Link to this answerBasic wage as defined in the employment contract, India typically includes Dearness Allowance for statutory calculations; UAE typically excludes allowances. Confirm against your contract.
Link to this answerThe calculator uses the leave-days you input; ensure that figure is already net of any company carry-forward cap. WappBlaster Leave module enforces caps automatically and produces an audit-grade balance per employee.
Link to this answerNothing; both the India and UAE modes are free and instant. No login is requested before the result appears.
Link to this answerDivide monthly basic by 26 for India, then multiply by 25. With the page's sample basic of ₹30000, the daily rate is ₹1154 and the amount payable is ₹28846.
Link to this answerUse one that applies the 30-day calendar divisor and sits beside a gratuity tool, because UAE final pay needs both numbers. WappBlaster's UAE mode works that way, with the gratuity calculator a single link away.
