Hey Fishes!!! Any idea, how many days would it take for TechM to process the offer letter from the date of Letter of Intent?

Just curious to know the offer process period(days) and why would it take more than 3 days when the LOI has all band, role and salary breakup which means i presume that there are no approval delays. Can some HR enlighten us
