Thanks for asking Albus
Based on the information provided in Source 3, leave encashment is not a mandate by law for companies covered under the S&E Act. However, policies may vary from company to company.

According to my knowledge, leave encashment is not mandatory if the company provides unlimited leaves and is informed to the employees at the time of their joining or when the policy is updated.

Agree with @D S Purvika if the company follows Unlimited time off policy then leave encashment is not needed; however its not a mandate as per law based on my understanding

Leave Encashment is not a mandate under Law; it is based on company policy. Law defines the maximum limit of number of leaves that can be accumulated.

What do you mean by unlimited leave? How is it used in India?

There is no limit or bifurcation on leaves to be taken apart from the statutory ones.
