Dear Ms.Gauthaminair,
Fulfillment of notice condition by a woman employee on resignation is a contractual obligation cast upon her by the terms of the contract of employment. Receiving maternity benefit during her absence from work on account of her pregnancy is a statutory right given to her under the Maternity Benefit Act,1961. They are independent of each other and can not be clubbed together for expediting the process of resignation.
Better resign immediately after rejoining duty on the expiry of maternity leave by buying out the notice period. If the reason for your resignation is something other than a better job, remember that you are also entitled to leave with wages for a maximum period of one month in addition to the permissible absence as per Sec.10 of the MB Act,1961.

Maternity leave is maternity leave and the absence during this period cannot be treated as notice period.
Maternity leave is a social security enactment for welfare while notice period is an administrative function of the companies.
Proper advice of serving or buying out notice period (if possible) has been rendered above by a learned member.

What is paid by the employer to a woman during her maternity is called as "maternity benefit" as per Sec.6(1) of the MB Act,1961. This should be calculated on the basis of the average daily wages payable to the woman for the days she worked during the period of 3 calendar months immediately preceding the date of her absence on maternity leave.
