Section 376 of Indian Penal Code (IPC) 1860 overall deals with Punishment for Rape.

To be precise, Section 376 sub-section 'N' [i.e. sec 376(n)] deals with - Punishment for Repeatedly Raping Same Woman.
In detail it says that -
"If a person commits rape repeatedly on the same woman,
shall be punished with rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than ten years, but which may extend to imprisonment for life, which shall mean imprisonment for the remainder of that person's natural life, and shall also be liable to fine."
