In its clarification on this, the government said that there would be a rule of 48 hours of work in a week, if someone works for 8 hours a day, then he will have to work 6 days a week and will get one day off.

If a company adopts work for 12 hours a day, then it will have to give leave to the employee for the remaining 3 days. If the working hours increase, then the working days will also be 5 or 4 instead of 6. But for this, it is also necessary to have an agreement between both the employee and the company.
