The Telangana government has approved a policy permitting commercial establishments to increase daily working hours from eight to ten as part of its Ease of Doing Business reforms. This change excludes shops and maintains a weekly work hour cap of 48 hours. Overtime pay will be applicable for work beyond the 48-hour weekly limit. The policy aims to provide the same salary while extending working hours, effectively allowing employees to work longer days without increasing total weekly hours.
