What is IST?
IST (India Standard Time) is Standard time across all of India, a fixed five-and-a-half hours ahead of UTC — one of the few half-hour offsets in the world. For the exact time in a specific city rather than the zone in general, search for it on the homepage, or use the time zone converter to compare IST with your own time zone.
