I am using dhcpcd6.11.0 for acquiring lease from DHCP server

Dhcpcd client behaves abnormally while acquiring lease from dhcp server.

Dhcpcd terminal constantly shows lease expired in a loop while dhcp server is sending lease time as 8 days .

This issue occur on every fresh dhcp start.  And dhcpcd binary is fired to get lease for both IPv4 and IPv6

Following command is fired:

"dhcpcd  -t %d  -y %d -L -i abc -o 2 -o 3 -o 4 -o 7 -o 42 -o 6 -o 12"-o 15 -o 66 -o 120 -o 43 -o dhcp6_21 -o dhcp6_22 -o dhcp6_23 -o dhcp6_24 -o dhcp6_31 -o dhcp6_17

Please let me know if I have to change my firing command

Your command works fine with dhcpcd-7.0.2 at least.
While I cannot rule out an issue with dhcpcd-6.11.0, you also have not provided any debug logs to show what dhcpcd is doing.

dhcpcd can expire the lease for a number of reasons - carrier lost is one.
