Leave encashment exemption to Govt. vs. Non-Govt. employees

This discussion explores the disparity in how leave encashment is calculated and taxed for government versus non-government employees. While government employees receive their leave encashment based on their last salary and enjoy full tax exemption, non-government employees are paid based on the average of their last ten months' salary. The conversation also touches upon the ₹3 lakh exemption limit, which applies to non-government employees but not to government employees.
