An undertaking to this effect should, therefore, be taken from the Government servant whenever commuted leave is sanctioned to him. In all cases of resignation and voluntary retirement refund of excess leave salary should be enforced while in cases where the retirement is compulsorily thrust upon him by reasons of ill-health incapacitating him for further service or in public interest or when he dies before resuming his duty no refund should be enforced

Note (3): When reference to Note (2) the retirement in such cases shall have effect from the date on which such leave commenced. An undertaking to this effect should, therefore, be taken from Government servants who avail of leave not due. The question whether a Government servant should be called upon to refund the amount of leave salary should be decided on the merits of each case, e.g., if the retirement is voluntary, refund should be enforced, if it is unavoidable by reasons of ill-health incapacitating him for further service, no refund need be insisted upon].
G.O.Ms.No. 300, Finance Dt. 18-11-1965,
