India uses India Standard Time (IST), IANA identifier Asia/Kolkata.
India Standard Time covers the whole country from a single meridian near Mirzapur (82.5° E), which is why the offset lands on a half hour rather than a full hour.
India does not use daylight saving time. IST stays at UTC +05:30 every day of the year, so a conversion you learn in January still works in July.
The second panel shows UTC beside the local clock, and the roller lets you check any UTC hour against IST — useful when a call, deadline or flight time is published in UTC.
