Struggling with Unresponsive Consultancy for MB Act 2017 Leave: What Should I Do Next?

Hi all,

I applied for paid leave under the MB Act 2017. My company in Chennai directed me to contact a consultancy in Mumbai. The consultancy advised me to send an email. I have been sending emails daily for the past week, but they have not replied yet. Three months' leave has already passed. What should I do now?

Dear Anitha,

Can you please provide a brief explanation of your query? Are you indicating that you are leaving the company and inquiring about paid leave entitlements?

Dear Anita,

As rightly said by Mr. Paresh, you need to give a brief about your query. Since you are already on leave and inquiring about maternity benefits, may I ask which leave you are currently on? Additionally, how long have you been working with the organization, and are you covered under ESIC?

Thank you.

I joined on May 01, 2017, for a one-year contract basis (Extendable). I took maternity leave from September 01, 2017. I worked totally for 120 days (4 months). My salary was $20,000 (Excluding PF and professional tax). No other taxes and ESI.
