Dear Arush: The amended provision in MB Act reads as follows: ‘‘Provided that the maximum period entitled to maternity benefit by a woman having two or more than two surviving children shall be twelve weeks of which not more than six weeks shall precede the date of her
expected delivery;’’;
So the crucial question is the number of children surviving on the date of delivery in your case it is only one. So you are entitled to full 26 weeks.
