It is not clear whether the 35 days leave that you are talking about is already under credit, or you are eligible for the whole of the year (including the accumulated ones if any).

Yes, if the credit of leave is limited, then the Company can definitely stop your salary, beyond the available leave period.

no these are pending leaves with me which i can take and not 35 its around 45 leaves and if in march i have taken leave then 15 days for march (excluding weekoff sat and sun), for april its 18 days working (excluding public holidays and week off).then they have to give salary for april.

 

still want to check do copany has power to stop slary as i am on medical leave

As alredy answered by me, the Company will continue to pay you to the extent of your leave availability.  Once your leave availability is over, they can very well stop your salary, no matter whether you are on medical leave or otherwise.

The establishment has to release salary slip, salary of the month in which employee has worked for days worked e.g. April as posted by you, on usual/fixed pay day…………….

The employer can very well allow clubbing/adjusting other leaves by IT’s sweet will……………..

You can try for IT..

If employer does not agree then IT may not allow [paid medical leave beyond limit of medical leave and beyond that may approve on LoP/LWP (without discontinuity in service.. and you may confirm IT.)..

Submit leave application in time and under proper acknowledgment and keep all supporting docs e.g; Medical advice/Rx, medical certificate, Lab tests etc..

The c/f leave (earned) that can be encashed can continue to accumulate  and can be encashed at the time of separation….
