Dear Sonali B,
plz dont confuse members with your wrong inputs at this forum. First try to gain proper knowledge/information on the topic and then give your input. Dont give input with your half baked knowledge.
There is no salary ceiling for getting benefits under maternity benefits act 1961. There is no dispute on this matter.
If a female employees is not covered under ESIC benefits for whtasoever reasons, by default she will be covered under maternity benefits act 1961.
Lets all follow “It is better to keep our mouth shut and appear fool than to open it and remove all doubt.”
