IANA time zones in India
India maps to the following IANA time-zone database entries. Open any zone for its current time, UTC offset, daylight-saving rules and the cities and countries that use it.
- Asia/Calcutta IST · UTC+5:30
- Asia/Kolkata IST · UTC+5:30
Does India have multiple time zones?
Yes. India uses more than one IANA time zone, so the current local time can differ by city or region. For scheduling, compare the exact city on the world cities list or use the time zone converter.
| IANA time zone | Current standard offset |
|---|---|
| Asia/Calcutta | UTC+5:30 |
| Asia/Kolkata | UTC+5:30 |
Why this matters
A country clock is a useful overview, but a city or IANA time-zone page is more precise for travel and scheduling because it identifies the exact rule set, UTC offset, and daylight-saving behavior.
