i'll come late vs i'll be coming late

The phrases are both correct, but their meanings differ a bit. 'I'll come late' implies a simple future action of arriving late, while 'I'll be coming late' suggests a continuous or ongoing action of arriving late. The choice between them depends on the nuance you want to express.
