What will be the maintenance time for the OB32 update?

Whenever there is a major update, the servers of Free Fire are taken down for maintenance. This maintenance lasts for about nine hours on the day the update arrives. Since the maintenance time for the OB31 update ranged from 9:30 AM IST to 6:30 PM IST, the same time frame can be expected in case of the OB32 update.
