In India at the managerial level, particularly in smaller companies, someone generally works for 11 hours a day and 6 days a week. A typical office will open at 09:00 or 09:30 and officially end the work day at about 19:00. However, many workers and especially managers will stay later in the office due to additional work load. However, large Indian companies and MNC offices located in India tend to follow a 5-day, 8 to 9 hour per day working schedule. The Government of India in some of its offices also follows a 5-day week schedule.
