There is no provision in the Payment of Bonus Act to make any deduction in the payment of bonus on account of taking leave of any kind including maternity leave. The amount of bonus payable to an employee for an year depends on the wage/salary earned in the respective accounting year. Leave salary is also earned by the employee with respect to the service and the other eligibility conditions.

Dear Member,
The Maternity Leave with Wage or Salary will not disqualify to receive the bonus. In case the employee is covered under the ESI, the situation will be different. The employer is not under any obligation to treat the benefit received from ESI as Wage/Salary.
