Maternity Leave pay gives to employee basic salary or gross CTC?

In actual, i am working in Japanese company and i want to avail Maternity Leave.
Request you to support that when i can ask for Maternity Leave.
I asked my HR to know the pay in Maternity Leave she said that 6 month basic pay will provide.
Is that true that in Maternity Leave pay gives to employee basic salary or gross CTC.
As i am having almost 2 years on company payroll.
She said Yamaha and Honda Company having same rule but which i do not think so?

delivery, the actual day of her delivery and any period immediately
following that day.]

daily wage means the average of the woman's wages payable to her for
the days on which she has worked during the period of three calendar

under the Minimum Wages Act, 194

Dear Nathrao Sir,
Please help and confirm pay is depends on the company or not.
As our company offers only basic salary instead of per day salary.

In this case, you have to pay the basic salary. CTC is a much broader term than the actual salary received, it is the cost borne by the unit and includes many factors which are not part of the monthly salary, so such extra factors can be excluded.

Dear KK!HR

Dear Sir
One of employee who is in ESI since 2015 do not want to claim maternity benifits from ESI as she is having Medical Insurance from Her Husband.
whetaher the Employer has to pay her salary for 26 weeks .
Pls advice
Srinivas

If the employee is covered under the ESI Scheme, the employer does not have to incur liability for maternity benefit.

Dear Srinivas,
Let her claim 26 weeks Maternity Benefit from ESI. Medical Insurance will cover only hospitalisation charges/benefits and not leave period.

Kindly confirm if possible.
