Scheduling between the two

Working hours overlap from 9:00 am to 10:00 am BRT, which is 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm IST. Anything inside that window falls in the normal working day at both ends.

A note on IST: it can also mean Israel Standard Time (UTC+2) and Irish Standard Time (UTC+1). This page means India Standard Time, which is what almost all searches for IST want.

Brasília Time (BRT) is used in Rio de Janeiro and Brasília. Brazil ended daylight saving in 2019.
