World Clock - Track Global Time Zones from India

Global Connectivity: India (IST) is 5 hours and 30 minutes ahead of GMT. Use this tool to track times in USA, UK, UAE, and Singapore to stay in sync with global partners.

Why Indian Professionals Need a World Clock

As a global hub for IT and Outsourcing, many professionals in India work across different time zones. Whether you're in Bangalore coordinating with Silicon Valley or in Mumbai dealing with London's financial district, knowing the exact local time is crucial.

Working with USA (EST/PST)

Indian night shifts often align with US business hours. Remember, US Daylight Saving Time (DST) shifts the gap by 1 hour twice a year.

Working with Europe (GMT/CET)

The 4.5 to 5.5-hour gap means mid-afternoon in India is the best time for joint meetings with UK or European teams.

Common Time Zones for Indian Careers

These are the most frequently used time zones by Indian professionals and their approximate offset from Indian Standard Time (IST):

Region Time Zone Approx. IST Offset
USA West Coast PST / PDT -12.5 to -13.5 Hours
USA East Coast EST / EDT -9.5 to -10.5 Hours
United Kingdom GMT / BST -4.5 to -5.5 Hours
Dubai, UAE GST -1.5 Hours
Singapore / HK SGT / HKT +2.5 Hours

Global Meeting Scheduling Tips

Avoid the "When can we meet?" email back-and-forth by following these IST-centric tips:

  • The "Magic Window": 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM IST is the ideal time to connect with UK, Middle East, and Singapore simultaneously.
  • Morning Sessions: 9:00 AM IST is late night (8:30 PM PST) for Los Angeles teams—good for quick handovers.
  • Late Night Sync: 8:30 PM IST aligns perfectly with 10:00 AM EST (New York) for morning stand-ups.
  • Check DST: US and Europe change clocks twice a year. Always re-verify the offset in March and October using this tool.

Frequently Asked Questions - Global Time

Despite being a large country, India uses a single time zone (GMT+5:30) to maintain national synchronization. It is calculated based on 82.5°E longitude in Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh. While there have been debates about a second time zone for Northeast India (Chabua time), IST remains the official standard.

DST is the practice of advancing clocks by one hour during warmer months to extend evening daylight. India does not observe DST. However, US, UK, and Europe do, which means your meeting times with them will shift by one hour twice a year.

To find New York time from IST: Subtract 9 hours and 30 minutes (during Summer) or 10 hours and 30 minutes (during Winter). Manually calculating is prone to errors, which is why using a live world clock tool is recommended for business.
