Indian Standard Time (IST) is measured at 82.5 degrees east longitude, which corresponds to five and a half hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC+5:30). It is the time zone used in India and Sri Lanka.
The need for the Indian Standard Meridian was to establish a common reference point for time determination in India. By adopting the 82.5° E longitude as the standard meridian, it helped in organizing the country into a single time zone, simplifying time-keeping and communication processes across the nation.
The Prime Meridian, located in Greenwich, London, represents the 0° longitude for the world standard time, also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Indian Standard Time is calculated with a time offset of UTC + 5:30. If it is midnight UTC, then it will be 5:30am IST (Indian Standard Time). Indian Standard Time also covers Sri Lanka and the islands of Lakshadweep.
