Watch out: IST is also Israel Standard Time (UTC+2) and Irish Standard Time (UTC+1). This page is the Indian one.
How the difference is worked out
Neither Malaysia Time nor India Standard Time moves its clock relative to the other, so india standard time is 2 hours 30 minutes behind malaysia 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 — India Standard Time is 2 hours 30 minutes behind Malaysia 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/Kuala_Lumpur and Asia/Kolkata. Nothing is looked up on a server and nothing about your visit is recorded.
