No ne mentioned this, so statically (engine off no lights, etc), battery voltage should be approx. 12.6v. With engine running, it should be about 14v.
From the symptoms you describe "after driving it for few hours it would start on it's own for the rest of the day", I would be more inclined to think the battery or the is being drained rather than the charging system. If it wasn't charging, it would never run 4 hours.
If you are able, try disconnecting the battery overnight and then try to see if it starts in the morning (of course after reconnecting).
good luck and please let everyone know the fix
