Articleship leave

My period of articleship gets over by 30th of August

I had taken exam leave from Nov 2013 to June 9th(due to extention of exams)

So the total holidays taken by me comes to 205 (exclduing exam days)

My calculation would be 365*3= 1095 days - 156(52*3)(Sundays)

Balance period to be worked would be 939 days 1/6th would be 156 days.

Now for my calculation of 205 days I have NOT taken into account the Sundays

That is in 205 days there are like 32 sundays are included. 

Is it possible to deduct Sundays since 156 days calculation is only for working days? because my principal wants me to extend 2 months of articleship since his calculation is (205-150) would be 55 days.

Kindly do help in resolving the querry. Any regulation links would be appreciated.

Let the no. of Leaves allowed and taken be x

Therefore, the Actual No. of Days worked = 1095-x (No treatment for Regular Holdiays like Weekends and Gazetted Holidays)

Now, Leaves Allowed = 1/6 of Actual No. of Days Worked

x = 1/6 (1095-x)

6x = 1095 – x

7x = 1095

x = 156

 

So,

your days served= 1095-205=890 days

leaves allowed 890/6=148 days

extension of articleship will be= 205-148= 57 days.
