It depends on the contract signed between you & the employer.

Although it is a paid govt. holiday for all, if its not stated in contract, then employer can play with you.

if u are present one day before Eid, you should get the Eid Holidays. Similarly if you join the office on Thursday you should get paid for Friday also.
