Hi, As Raj had rightly indicated, it is solely under discretion of the company management to decide whether to grant or not to grant PL. Also the period of PL is again decided by the mgmt of a company. Good input from Raj, thnks, KMD Shrithar

Hai All,
What is Paternal Leave:
Paternity leave is a paid leave granted by the company to a male employee when he becomes a father
Applicability:
A male employee with less than 2 surviving children may be granted paternity leave for a period of 5 days during the confinement of his wife. It can be availed 15 days before or up to 15 days from the date of delivery of the child. If this leave is not availed within this period, it will be treated as lapsed. (different companies has different time limits to avail this leave & the no of leaves are varying between 3 & 5)
Is there a Law in India?
Even though there is no specific Labor law that enforces this leave, The fifth pay commission of India has suggested this to implement to Government employees in India. Central & State Governments of India has introduced this leave with 15 paid days to its employees.
• Reference for central government leave: No <link updated to site home>
• Reference of all the states statistics: Major Legislations
Even more and more companies in India are increasingly offering paternity leave to their employees. Either 3 or 5 leaves depending on company’s discretion. This is a symbolic gesture that we are participating in the employee’s happiness.
