This question is far too broad for a Quick Answers forum. You first need to do some outline requirements gathering and basic design. Then decide which language and/or platfrom you are targetting. Then, when you have a more specific question you can ask it here, and people will try to help. As a starting point you will probably find some suggestions through Google.

There are several possibilities, now which one to stick on depends on usability point of view.

First of all, I will keep aside a Win Apps as most of the leave application can be posted remotely.

Second and probably my final choice will be a Web Application along with Mobile WAP hosted in a dedicated server or shared hosting will also do.
Here are some key points, that you need to give stress
1. The html design should be compatible with mobile browser. So that user can access the e-leave application form though mobile also.
2. Think about the security. There will be a staff list with user/pwd to be authenticated befor entering into the core area.
3. Integrate Email/SMS, so that the application can be emailed directly to the concerned admin along with posting to db
4. There will be an admin site - all related to standing data, masters, reports etc.

This is just a basic idea. You need to add more flavor depending upon your requirements.

cheers

I decided that I acn create a web application, but it is also accseeible from mobile phone also.

Is It possible to develop such an application.

Please suggest me, so I can further go on with that.

Thanks in advance.

You can make one application that can be used for both. You need to consider some design guidelines to work for both. Google it and you will find lots of info. But if you want to make it a professional application, you need to develop a separate application for mobile (a light weight version).

sure. My concept is after employee submit leave req form, the sms or mail has been sent to admin and the respective higher auhtority. and at the same time if he approves the leave again sms has been sent to the corresponding employee.
Is it fine? can you tell me some more ideas please?

Yes you can add this. SMS is becoming defacto standard now a days.
You need to buy sms credits from any Service Provider. Code snippets for sending sms will be supplied by the service provider.
