Yes, there is no time limit for filing charge sheet. T
hat 90 days time is for those accused in custody who in absence of filing charge sheet within 90 get bail as a matter of right.
If you want to expedite submitting the charge sheet, then you could ask for the direction of the Magistrate in that respect.

if the sentence is 6 months then 6 months.
if the sentence is one then one year.
if the sentence is 3 years then 3 years.
