I am working in the Telecom industry, in the O&M department. As per company rules, working hours should be from 9:30 am to 6:30 pm with a 30-minute break, and Saturday and Sunday as the weekend off. However, only Sunday is allowed as the weekend off for associates/off-role employees. Is this legal?

When I asked my Reporting Manager about this, he replied, "There are different rules for on-role and off-role employees. Off-role employees have only Sunday as the weekend off." How is it possible that in the same organization, there are different rules for on-role and off-role employees when the duty hours (9:30 am to 6:30 pm) are the same for all?

There can be two rules for off roll employees and on roll employees. But there cannot be an employee working for more than 48 hours a week.
