The internet is not a lawyer and neither are you.
Talk to a real lawyer about your legal issue.

As such there is no time limit specified for the police officer for filing of charge sheet, but if the accused is in police custody or is in judicial custody, then Provisions of section 57 and section 167 Cr.P. C. are applicable which provides for time limit for keeping the accused in the custody and granting of bail.
