Please complete the work in time.

Please complete the work on time.

Explanation:

  • Two prepositions are applicable for the given sentence. They are 'in', 'on'.
  • The preposition 'in' is used when it specifies that the subject is running within the stipulated time. It is not running late. Here the speaker asks the listener to do the work within the specified time.
  • 'On' on the other hand specifies the exact time. The subject will reach the destination right on the specified time. So the addressed person has to complete the work at that time only.  
  • So both in and on are correct here.
