The Maternity benefit Act is applicable to every woman even if employed through an outside agency. Thus You are entitled to the maternity benefit since you have been working since March 2011.

Since your employer is Sigma HR solutions and not the National Institute of Naturopathy, Sigma should give you maternity benefits. Whether the Sigma (contractor) can shift his liability to National Institute (Principal employer) is their head ache and you have nothing to do with it. Therefore, you may claim the benefits from Sigma from whom you get salary for the work done by you for National Institute.
