Like Xarmanla said, the phrase is not natural. I would not expect to hear it, unless an Indian person says it.
"I am proceeding on leave." sounds like the person is "going on leave" or "taking leave" *RIGHT NOW*.
"I will be proceeding on leave." sounds like the person is going on leave *IN THE FUTURE*.
That is what it sounds like to me, anyway.

The expression is not common in the USA. A person will take a leave of absence, but the verb proceed is rarely used in North American English. A cursory search shows only references in India.
