The vaccines at 12 and 15 months are not given earlier. So she does not have protection against those diseases. It's better to take 12 and 15 month vaccines before govt ones. The govt ones are booster doses (repeat).

Both 12 months(Hepatitis A-1, PCV Booster) and 15 months (MMR 2, Varicella-1) can be given with 16-18 months vaccines (DPT/DTap 1st Booster ,HiB 1st Booster, IPV-B1)
Consult your local pediatrician ( private or government).
Note - hepatitis a , varicella is not available in govt setups .

Go with current schedule alongwith due vaccine. Any number of vaccine can be given on same session. If MMR missed then 2 doses can be given at the gap of one month
