Neither India Standard Time nor Coordinated Universal Time changes its clocks in the next 18 months.
India Standard Time is UTC+5:30 all year. The whole country keeps a single clock, and India has not observed daylight saving time since the 1940s, so IST never changes.
IST can also stand for Irish Standard Time or Israel Standard Time. On this site IST always means India Standard Time (Asia/Kolkata).
Coordinated Universal Time is the reference every time zone is measured from. It never changes for daylight saving time. Servers, aviation, logs and APIs use it because it is unambiguous.
Coordinated Universal Time is 5 hours 30 minutes behind India Standard Time all year.
Coordinated Universal Time is 5 hours 30 minutes behind India Standard Time all year. Type any IST time into the IST to UTC converter to see the UTC time for any date.
9:00 AM IST is 3:30 AM UTC.
12:00 PM IST is 6:30 AM UTC.
10:00 AM IST is 4:30 AM UTC.
5:00 PM IST is 11:30 AM UTC.
No, UTC is behind IST. Coordinated Universal Time is 5 hours 30 minutes behind India Standard Time all year.
Working days of 9 AM to 5 PM overlap from 2:30 PM to 5:00 PM IST, which is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM UTC.
Neither zone observes daylight saving time, so the difference never changes.
IST can also stand for Irish Standard Time or Israel Standard Time. On this site IST always means India Standard Time (Asia/Kolkata).
