IST to PST — India to Los Angeles time
India Standard Time (IST) is UTC+5:30 and never changes. US Pacific Time is PST (UTC−8) in winter and PDT (UTC−7) in summer, so the India–California gap shifts by one hour across the year.

India and US Pacific barely overlap in working hours. Early morning in India (8–9:30 AM IST) is the previous evening in California (about 7:30–9 PM PT); late evening in India touches the US Pacific morning.
