Supriya,
Government may declare holidays applicable to the Public Sector and Government Sector only. But in the private sector, this Government Circular is not applicable; hence, you have to abide by the relaxing time to cast your vote.

In Maharashtra, the Labour Commissioners have issued notifications making it mandatory for all companies registered under the Shops and Establishments Act to declare a paid holiday on election days. Hence, it is not only government and PSU organizations that have to declare a holiday for elections.

Dear Ravi,
I faced this situation in my first job. Your employer will ask you a question: why did you declare a holiday? Because it is not an authorized holiday. If he comes to know that other industries and organizations were working on election day with some time relaxation to cast their votes, you will be in trouble.
