"I will come late today for office" vs "i will be late today"

Both phrases are correct, but they have slightly different meanings and contexts. 'I will be late today' implies a general lateness without specifying the reason, while 'I will come late today for office' specifies that the lateness is related to going to the office. The choice between the two depends on the level of detail and specificity you want to convey.
