The maximum hours of overtime permitted for a factory shall depend upon the state rules in this regard. The Central Act specifies that the maximum hours inclusive of overtime in a day should not exceed 10 hours. The same in a week shall not exceed 60 hours and the total overtime hours in a quarter should not be more than 50 hours. When section 65 of the Factories Act empowers the state government to exempt the provisions relating to hours of work, such extension or exemption, as the case may be shall be subject to following conditions.

1. Total number of hours including overtime should not exceed 12 hours
2. Total number of hours including overtime in a week should not exceed 60 hours and
3. The total overtime hours in a quarter should not exceed 75

Please check the respective state rules and confirm the same.
