Your business will fall under factories act if you manufacture and if you operate thru office then you fall under shops & establishment act.
Factories Act is central government statute & as such leave provision will be the same in all states. As per the act employee who has worked for: a) 240 days in calendar year or b) 2/3 of the working days if s/he had joined after 1st January in the previous year, will be 1 day leave for every 20 days worked.
Shops Act is a state statute. Depending on state your employees are deployed in the entitlement will differ.
