When overtime starts in India
The daily threshold is 9 hours and the weekly threshold is 48 hours. Hours worked beyond either point count as overtime and are paid at 2× the regular rate.
Where a figure is not shown, India does not set that threshold nationally, or it is left to a collective agreement. Check the source before applying it to a specific contract.
Maximum weekly hours
The maximum working week in India is 60 hours, including overtime. Averaging arrangements over a reference period are common and may change how the limit applies to any single week.
Rest breaks
A rest break of at least 30 minutes applies once a shift exceeds 5 hours. Unpaid breaks are excluded from paid hours, which is how the hours calculator treats the break field by default.
Calculate overtime pay for India
Select India in the hours calculator or the timesheet and these thresholds and the 2× multiplier are applied to your week automatically. Overtime hours are shown on their own line rather than folded into the total, so the figure can be checked against the statute.
