It should be exclusive of lunch hours.. Thats how you will find the normal office hours are 10:00 am to 6:30 pm.
Anyways, these days normal working are "minimum" 8 hours, maximum no limits ...

Hello HR Friends,
Can someone please advice on below question?
Does the India Labour law disallow having different work timings for different departments of the same legal entity?
For example, in an Organisation, the Commercial dept works 5 days for 9 hrs per day BUT Operations department work for 6 days for 8 hrs per day. Can this be written in the Service Condition Manual?
Thanking in anticipation!!
Regards,
Sarika

Dear Sherine,
You would be governed by the Shops and Establishments of Karnataka which gives the total working hours as 8 hours in the working hours section of the Act. Any overtime over and above 8 hours calls for double the rate of salary. Also there are specific provisions for ladies to work between 9 pm to 9 am.
