If this 'Diwali Bonus' is statutory bonus payable during diwali termed as diwali bonus, then you should pay it along with other employees. The reasons are:
1. An employee on maternity leave is on service of the company.
2. Bonus paid this financial year, ie, 2024-25 though paid during diwali is the deferred wages of the preceding financial year, ie, 2023-24. Therefore, you cannot hold it till she resumes work after maternity leave.
