I have changed my computer recently on Jan 31, 2023, and now I just found out that I am 1.5 months pregnant. I will be continuing to work in this organization until November 15, 2023. Am I eligible for maternity benefits in my current company?

Hello,
As per the Maternity Benefit Act of 1961, a woman should have worked with her employer for at least 80 days in the 12 months preceding the date of her expected delivery to be eligible for maternity benefits. At the time of delivery, both pre and post, you will be eligible to receive maternity benefits. If you are covered under ESIC, then you can avail yourself of benefits from ESIC.
