Dear All,
I would like clarify that the maternity leave is only for 12 weeks means 84 days (12*7=84). Meanwhile 6 weeks on per-delivery and 6 weeks on post delivery. You need to count National, Festival & Weekly holiday under maternity leaves.

Sandeep, I think the rules specify that out of the 12 weeks 6 weeks needs to be post delivery. It does not say the remaining 6 weeks needs to be pre delivery. So the employee can take the entire 12 weeks post delivery if she wishes
