Leave encashment along with LTC only once a year: DoPT Office Memo

ENCASHMENT of leaves by government servants along with LTC can’t be taken twice, an office memorandum issued on Monday clarified. “When the one and the same LTC is being availed of by the Government servant and his family members separately in a block year, encashment of leave would be…
restricted to one occasion only,” said the DoPT office memorandum (OM). It refers to a September 2008 DoPT OM allowing encashment of earned leaves along with LTC, and also stating  that a government servant can avail of the encashment within the same block. LTC means Leave Travel Concession.
“It is clarified that the Government servants governed by the CCS (Leave) Rules, 1972 and entitled to avail LTC may encash earned leave upto 10 days at the time of availing both types of LTCs, i.e. `Hometown' and 'anywhere in India'”, said the February 9, 2015 OM said.
