note that if you didn't take the leave days because your employer wanted you to work, than they are counted as extra additional work day so you get >150%

so the calculation will be

basic/30 * 100 * 1.5

basic/30 is your mean daily income

100 leave days untaken

1.5 is the 50 % bonus for extra work.
