No. As per the OM of even number dated 7.9.2010, Child Care Leave may not be granted in more than 3 spells. Hence CCL may not be allowed more than 3 times irrespective of the number of days or times Child Care Leave has been availed earlier. Past cases may not be reopened.

Under no circumstances can any employee proceed on CCL without prior approval of the Leave sanctioning authority. As per this rule position CCL may not be extended. But CCL may be combined with leave of the kind due and admissible – Read Child Care leave Conditions
Vanlaltlana Zote says
Can CCL be extended for another period on its expiry? If so, should it be treated as another spell?
admin says
Madam . It is stipulated that CCL cannot be granted without prior approval. It appears that Department HQrs are not permitting extending CCL based on this condition. As of now there is no other clarification /interpretation regarding extending of CCL without prior approval. All Updates about CCL available here [ Click to Read ]

Sandhya says
i would like to have clarification for the following:
this belongs to the case where both the parents are employees and posted at different stations. the children are with one parent due to this situation.
sometimes, the presessing responsibilities of father would not allow caring of childrent and demand presense of mather for longer time say more than 15 days.
in case the mother proceeds on CCL for 15 days and extends leave for further period say one month. if the leave extension is not granted, what shall she do!
in this situation, the mother can not leave the children to no one’s rescue and join the duty.
hence, i would like to know, how CCL helps in this kind of situations.

I have completed/availed the child care leave for 19 days. Now I want to extent it for another 20 days. Can continuous extention is possiable. Or I have to fresh apply for child care leave. Please suggest me the procedure.
D.K. Sharma says
Eversince the provision of Child care leave has started, there have been many representations to the Govt. regarding extending the benefit of such leave to male employees as well. Is a male employee not responsible for care of his children ? Moreover, since the CCL envisages full salary for the women employees, it becomes frustating for the male employees who have to sweat out in the office working additionally in lieu of their female counterparts, who reap such benefits at home. One more question, Whose Idea was this regarding CCL and why stepmotherly treatment to male employees ? These questions need to reply by the Govt. Would an RTI help?

neha says
can any body leave station taking CCL or visit abroad stating that the child is accompanying for a change in mood.
dharma says
Thanks for Child care Leave.But male officers feels that they are sanctioning leave from their pocket. It is always mentioned that leave is not your right. If so when any employee accumulates on their leave account 300 days (but now it is total 360 days due to the facility of 10 days encashment) their right towards accumulating ends. In the same way they do not have any right to take any extra leave i.e. which is said to have lapses. the question of lapse does not arise because your right is gone over. and the leave cannot be overflowed.So after so many confusion the leave declared for the benefits of women employee mat be extended to men also to take care of the child during March 08 2011. Parents means both mother and father.Please make a clear order without using any etc. because the employees or very clever in the etc we can accumulate any reason as the CCL is to be treated as EL The clarity without any confusion may be announced.There are some women employees whose child is in hostel and they cannot take leave for the reason sickness/examination. but they need to take care when the child comes and stays with their parents during the hostel holidays. For sickness reason the child sickness will not prolonged or it cannot be predicted. so prior sanction of CCL is not relevant. examinations can be predicated only a weak ago. So A fresh order and clrifications is a must.
sangeeta says
Can EL for any no. of days may be converted to CCL if the purpose of leave was to take care of children
