My Study Permit expired on 4th February, and I applied for extension of 4th Jan before expiry of my study permit. How many hours I can work now? I am on maintained status.

Off-campus work hours public policy and study permit extensions
If the international student’s application for a study permit extension was received by IRCC on or before December 7, 2023, and the application is approved, they may work more than 20 hours per week under the public policy until the study permit extension expires, or until April 30, 2024, whichever comes first.

If the international student’s application for a study permit extension was received by IRCC after December 7, 2023, they may work more than 20 hours per week under the public policy until the expiry date of the study permit they applied to extend, or until April 30, 2024, whichever comes first.

Well you could only work part time after February 4. You can only work 20 hours so make sure you don’t work more than 20 hours from now on. It is an issue, don’t know.
