When the difference changes

Eastern European Time and India Standard Time do not change their clocks on the same dates, so the gap between them is not the same all year. Most converters show only today’s figure. These are the periods ahead:

  1. Now – March 28, 2027India Standard Time is 3 hours 30 minutes ahead
  2. March 28, 2027 – October 31, 2027India Standard Time is 2 hours 30 minutes ahead
  3. October 31, 2027 – onwardsIndia Standard Time is 3 hours 30 minutes ahead

Periods shorter than a day are not listed. Each zone changes at its own local time, so on a date when both move there are a few hours when the gap is briefly something else.

Daylight saving

Eastern European Time

Sunday, March 28, 2027

Clocks go forward one hour — 3:00 am becomes 4:00 am local time, and the zone is on EEST after that.

India Standard Time

No clock changes

India Standard Time stays on IST all year, so its offset from UTC never moves.

Scheduling between the two

Working hours overlap from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm EET, which is 12:30 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.

Eastern European Time (EET) is used in Helsinki, Bucharest, Kyiv and Cairo

India Standard Time (IST) is used in all of India and Sri Lanka, on a single UTC+5:30 offset with no daylight saving
