 Dear Sir, I am glad to inform you that I&amp;#39;ll plan to go for Tirupathi on 2nd July, 2009. Hence please grant me 2 days leave i.e 3rd July, 2009 and 6th July, 2009. Thanks &amp;amp; Regards , 
 The above is probably fine in the Indian style of English. 
  
 Here&amp;#39;s how I&amp;#39;d write it in Canada. As you can see, it&amp;#39;s more informal, and we usually don&amp;#39;t explain the reason. 
  
 Dear Tom, I would like to take two days of my vacation, on 3rd July and 6th July. 
   
 Thanks,
