Dear Mr. Gaur,
As per my knowledge, the answers as under:-
1.The applicability of Income Tax on PF withdrawal amount within 5 year service is very well defined under the Act. It will be applicable as per your income slab of financial year.
2. The proposal of maternity benefit Act 1961 of 26 weeks leave has been passed but so far state governments have not notified and it is under process.
3. The Payment of Bonus act 1965 has been amended and notified. Pl see your related state circular.
4. Now this Act has been amended and calculation of days have no meaning. After completion of 5 years, less the six month is none but more then six month is equal to an year.
Regards,

All of your questions have been discussed repeatedly on the forum.
