Hi Vanita,
As you are aware a notice period is given so that the company can have enough time to find a replacement or you can train the replacement for that particular position.
Hence the approval of leave during notice period is entirely at the hands of the management.
The only way a leave can be approved is if you have a valid doctors' certificate and you apply for sick leave in this case the company has no right to deny you a leave.(eg. complications during pregnancy).
Now the management can decide to approve your leave based on your application and reason for leave but ask you to extend your notice period by the number of days you have applied for leave. This solution is beneficial for both the company and the employee.

Hi Vanita,
Approval of leave during notice period is entirely at the hands of the management.
Leaves taken duing the notice period should be granted in extreme cases and should be given as LOP and the notice period is extended by the nos of days the leaves were taken.
Leaves during notice period displays casual attitude towards work duing those days and not taking work serious...without genuine reason.

HI Saran,
This has been an issue haunting the people during notice period for a long time.
Since your manager is adamant on the fact the he wont relieve you before two months he has issues with you leaving the company.
The only solution you have is to get in touch with your new firm and discuss this with the concerned line manager and HR. Its better to have a meeting with both of them in the same room.
Some companies can arrange for you to join without the releiving letter when cited such a reason, you might have to submit a letter stating the reason for inability to furnish a relieving letter. Also the date of joining can be extended.
The other solution is not so ethical but is common is to submit a medical certificate but this again is better if discussed with your new firm. Also you can forgo the month's pay thats what they can legally deduct if you dont finish your notice period but the rest of the benefits has to cleared for you by your current employer.

There are two issues raised here.
1. Can an employee take leave during Notice Period.
Legally an employee can take the balance leave in his credit.Many Companies sanction a few days of leave . It is just like availing leave durin normal days.
2. Relieving before the notice period
With due respect to youngsters, I have come across with this as problem with younger age groups throughout my career.Departmental Heads with less experience insist on this. Similarly, youngsters, while negotiating with the new employer, agree to join early.When we select a person. we know he needs to serve the notice period. Instead we ask them to join immediately.We also promise that we will pay the notice pay. But when it comes to relieving, we will insist that he needs to complete the notice period! What a paradox!!!
In my opinion, if an employee wants to quit today, I will relieve him then and there provided he hands over properly and pays the Notice Pay.

1. Considering the nature of projects and the difficulty in finding his replacement, the companies want the person to stay during the notice period.
2. It is always better to have a smooth exit from the present organisation. People should plan ahead to maintain the good relationship at both the companies.

Hi,
Approval of leave in the notice period is in the hands of management.
If any body takes leave during the notice period his/her notice period will extend by the number of those days ,on which he/she has taken the leaves.
In the notice period its mandatory to inform the management in advance about such leave.
Thanks
