Found an article about the office timing that the employees should reach the office and do attendance punching by 9:15. Is that true? If yes then does this apply to all India in all small, mid, and large firms?

The article you found states that the Centre’s Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) has issued instructions that all employees must be in the office by 9:15 AM and mark their attendance. This policy allows a maximum delay of 15 minutes and mandates the use of the biometric attendance system, which has not been consistently used since the COVID-19 outbreak. Central government offices operate from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM.
However, this directive applies specifically to employees in central government offices across India. It does not automatically extend to all small, mid, and large firms across the country. Each private sector company or non-central government entity typically has its own policies regarding office timings and attendance. Therefore, while central government employees must adhere to this rule, private companies and other organizations may have different attendance policies based on their internal guidelines and operational needs.
Hope it will help you.
