Gurugram-based e-commerce firm Snapdeal, which has repositioned itself as a value e-commerce company, said on Thursday it would offer new mothers the option to work from home for six months, in addition to six months of maternity leave.

As companies look to welcome employees back to the office, Snapdeal announced this update to its maternity leave policy, keeping in mind the ongoing pandemic and apprehensions that new mothers may have while returning to the office.
