Ms. preeti
as i understood your employment was an organised & covered under statutory norms
so you are eligible for Maternity Leave with wages
so there are 2 issues related to you
1. if u covered under ESIC (employee state insurance corporation-if ur gross salary below 15000) then you are eligible for Maternity Leave with wages & wages will be provided by ESIC and leave will be given by the employer means employment will be continued for the period of six weeks before the Delivery & six weeks after the Delivery. Total medical treatment will be given by the ESIC hospitals (If u dont want u can ask to refer to your known doctor or hospital otherwise.) to avail this benefit first u have to go to ESIC doctor they will check and give the conformation about your pregnancy. for this ESIC process u can contact with ur HR or else with me. ill help u.
2. if you are not covered ESIC then you are covered under the Maternity benefit act 1961 according to this act section 5 says that "Subject to the provisions of this Act,
every woman shall be entitled to, and her employer shall be liable for, the payment of
maternity benefit at the rate of the average daily wage for the period of her actual absence
immediately preceding and including the day of her delivery and for the six weeks
immediately following that day"
as per my understanding in any way ur eligible for the Maternity Leave with wages benefit. get that
if u have any other Private issue like your salary details,& barriers to avail this benefit you can contact me though my E-mail. Feel free to contact me
Note: i am not a consultant i just share my knowledge
Take care

When you talk of contractual employee, what do you mean ?
Are they employed on temporary bais ?
Or are they working on a fixed term employment
Or are they working through a contract
Or is it that they are consultants ?
If they are consultants, maternity act will not apply
If they are on fixed term employment. They will only get paid leave for the remaining period of her fixed term.
