About India Standard Time
India keeps one clock, UTC+5:30, across a country spanning about 29 degrees of longitude — the sun rises nearly two hours earlier in Arunachal Pradesh than in Gujarat on the same clock. The half-hour offset means most conversions from India land on the half hour rather than the hour. Sri Lanka keeps the same time.
Cities on this clock: Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Pune, Ahmedabad.
Watch out: IST is also Israel Standard Time (UTC+2) and Irish Standard Time (UTC+1). This page is the Indian one.
About Philippine Time
The Philippines is a fixed UTC+8. It is a heavily quoted zone in outsourcing schedules, which is why the pairs from it to North America are among the most searched on this site.
Cities on this clock: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Chongqing, Taipei, Hong Kong, Singapore.
Watch out: Philippine Standard Time is often written PST locally — the same letters as US Pacific Standard Time, which is sixteen hours behind it.
How the difference is worked out
Neither India Standard Time nor Philippine Time moves its clock relative to the other, so philippine time is 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of india standard time is a rule rather than a fact about one particular year. The hour-by-hour table above holds on every date.
With both zones on their own standard time — daylight saving not in force anywhere — Philippine Time is 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of India Standard Time. That figure never changes; everything else on this page follows from it plus whichever clocks have moved.
Every figure here comes from the IANA time zone database via your browser's own Intl engine, using the zone ids Asia/Kolkata and Asia/Manila. Nothing is looked up on a server and nothing about your visit is recorded.
