If the leave availed is 'annual leave with wages' or privileged leave/ earned leave as per the Factories Act, no way the holiday intervening two leaves shall be counted as leave but should be marked as holiday. But in the case of CL or SL which are given in addition to the statutory leave under the Factories Act, can be treated differently as per the leave policy or settlement with the employees. The same principle applies to Mines and Plantations also.
In the case of establishments other than Factories, Mines and Plantations, ie, shops and commercial establishments, the state law will apply. Most of the Acts are silent with regard to treatment of holidays coming in between the leave days. Therefore, you have to cross the check with the state Act to clarify the matter.
Earned leave is a leave earned by working for certain number of days in the preceding year. The number of EL/PL also depends upon the number of days the employee had worked (to be very specific, the number of days the employee had physically present for work) in the preceding year. In such a scenario, it is a leave "earned" on the basis of his physical working, and therefore, the employee has a right to use it judicially. Therefore, holidays should be excluded from the leaves. At the same time, CL or SL are certain number, say SL of 12 days for 12 months/ per annum. It is given even if the employee works for a certain qualifying working days. Similarly, it is given during the first year of service also. Moreover, an employee who falls sick on Saturday and Monday is presumed to be sick on Sunday also, and he cannot say that I was perfectly alright on Sunday!

Dear Amod,
Mr Madhu has provided very good explanation to your query. The Holiday falls in between leave can be counted in leave and as Holiday in case to case basis.
This type of question is common for the establishment does not have a policy on leave. In my suggestion you need to adopt the leave policy for the establishment to avoid confusion.

Only the national holiday is to be observed mandatorily. The festival holidays shall be decided in consultation with the employees. Therefore, if any of the festival holidays falls on a day on which the company will be closed otherwise, say due to the day being Sunday or a National Holiday, like 2nd October, then you can give another day as holiday.
At the same time, the national holidays are date specific, and therefore, the employer need not give a compensatory holiday of the said national holiday falls on a weekly off day, say, Sunday.

As far as service regulations are concerned, for instance CCS(Leave) Rules, 1972 applicable to Central Government employees, holidays falling between leave periods would be treated as leave; however, holidays could be suffixed or prefixed. If on leave supported by medical certificate, the entire period commencing from date of issue of the said certificate till the date of the fitness certificate would be treated as leave period.
However, the person availing of Casual Leave, is considered to be on duty. Hence holidays between days on CL could be treated as holiday.
Incidentally, other types of leave cannot be combined with CL.
