How many i should work in an organization to avail maternity Leave?

M Mohan kumari
Hi,
I am 4 months pregnant and working in an IT company. I have got an offer from another IT company. Will i be able to join that company and avail maternity leaves?
In my current company, notice period is 3 months. I am trying to negotiate it for a month, so that i can join new company by end of next month.
Is it possible for me to take maternity leaves from Mid/End of November in new company?

Dear Mohan Kumari,
First of all you need to inform another IT company to which you are joining in about your pregnancy. There are very less companies which will like / allow employee who will be going on 6 months leave soon after joining. Hiding the fact again may create problem for you and it may result in termination of contract which is not beneficial for you.
Thus, speak-out with your new employer and clarifies from them.

If you complete 80 days of working in an organisation, you are entitled for Maternity Benefit. However, as said, you need to inform your new employer before joining.
