Yes the female employee is eligible for Maternity Benefit, the leave of MB is for 12 weeks i.e. 84 days. 6 weeks before expected date of delivery and 6 weeks after delivery. She is entitled for full salary and not part. Please refer the Maternity Benefit Act which will be knowledgeable to read and understand.

Dear Shweta,
She gets the full maternity benefit as she has completed 80 days of working before the maternity leave. Also the act does not differentiate between probation and permanent employee. There is no part payment in maternity act.
So she gets the entire benefit. download the maternity benefit act for documentary proof.
