Meeting Planner
Plan a IST to PDT meeting
India Standard Time is the fixed UTC+05:30 time used throughout India and does not observe daylight saving time. Pacific Daylight Time is the UTC-07:00 daylight-saving offset used in parts of western North America.
For meetings, begin with the shared business-hours window above. Confirm the date with every participant because abbreviations such as EST, EDT, BST, and CEST describe specific standard or daylight offsets rather than an automatically changing regional clock.
This converter treats IST as UTC+05:30 and PDT as UTC-07:00. Use the city-based converter when you need automatic seasonal IANA timezone rules for a future date.
