In my company, there was a maternity leave of 12 weeks that is applicable. However, I came to know that the period has been increased by the government, and my company is applying the same. But in my case, I would like to know the date to which it is applicable. The reason is I went on maternity leave on 2nd Sept '13, and as per the 12-week period, my leave was till 24th Nov '13. I have extended my leave as LWP, but it would be great if my original maternity leave is extended as per the new amendment.

As per my knowledge, read below:
No woman shall be entitled to maternity benefits unless she has actually worked in an establishment of the employer from whom she claims maternity benefits for a period of not less than one hundred and sixty days in the twelve months immediately preceding the date of her expected delivery. The maximum period for which any woman shall be entitled to maternity benefits shall be twelve weeks, that is to say, six weeks up to and including the day of her delivery and six weeks immediately following that day. For further details, you may read the Maternity Benefits Act or seek advice.

Dear Member,
From your remarks, it is not clear whether the "company" in which you are working is classified as an establishment or a factory. It has also not been mentioned whether the company in which you are working is covered under any of the enactments, namely - The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 or the Employees' State Insurance Act, 1948.
It would be better if you could provide complete details along with any recent amendments, if applicable. To my knowledge, no recent amendments have been made in any of the above major enactments that provide for maternity benefits/leaves.
