The workers concerned had work for all the 12 months. They were entitled<br \/>\nfor leave with wage. They did not avail of the leave. They surrendered the leave and<br \/>\nobtained cash payment in lieu of the leave. In such circumstances no contribution<br \/>\nshall  be payable for the 13th month&#8217;s wages during an year.
