Dear Seniors,

I am looking for the Maternity Leave and benefit law applicable in India. What is the maximum period a lady can avail the leave.

Hi, Rose,

Please go through the attachment; it might be helpful. 90 mL is allowed as per the law.

Dear Chitra,

It has been really helpful. Please also help me in knowing whether there have been any updates after the 6th Pay Commission report has come. It was stated that the law would change from 90 days to 4+1, which means 4 months with pay and one month without pay.

Regards.
