In India, the standard working hours are regulated by labor laws like the Factories Act, 1948, which mandates that employees work no more than 48 hours per week or 9 hours per day. Overtime is allowed, but it must be compensated at a premium, typically double the regular pay rate. Employees are also entitled to at least one day off per week.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown:
Daily and Weekly Limits:Daily: Employees cannot work more than 9 hours in a day.
Weekly: The maximum working hours per week is 48.

Ithe Factories Act, 1948 applies only to factories as defined under the law—i.e., premises where manufacturing processes occur with a certain number of workers.
CA firms are not factories, so the Factories Act does not apply to them.
CA firms fall under Shops and Establishments Act, this is a state-specific law and each state in India has its own law version of this. So check you state law regarding this, though most CAs don’t follow it.
