About Central Daylight Time (CDT)
Central Daylight Time (CDT, IANA: America/Chicago during DST window) is the summer-time variant of CST, set at UTC-5:00 — observed from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November per the US Energy Policy Act of 2005. CDT shares the same UTC offset as Eastern Standard Time (EST), so during winter months Chicago/Dallas are one hour behind New York/Atlanta, but during summer months Chicago/Dallas are still one hour behind because both regions advance equally for DST. The 'spring forward / fall back' transition affects an estimated 311 million US residents annually per Census data. CDT is used in 16 US states partially or fully (Illinois, Texas, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, North Dakota, South Dakota) and parts of Canada (Manitoba, western Ontario, Saskatchewan partial — Saskatchewan stays on CST year-round, an exception). Affects MLB season game scheduling, CME / CBOT commodity trading hours, and US-Canada-Mexico USMCA cross-border supply-chain handoffs.
About Nepal Time (NPT)
Nepal Time (NPT, IANA: Asia/Kathmandu) is the civil time of the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal, set at UTC+5:45 — one of only three time zones in the world with a 45-minute offset (along with Chatham Islands New Zealand UTC+12:45 and Eucla Western Australia UTC+8:45). NPT does not observe Daylight Saving Time. The 45-minute offset is preserved because Nepal's central meridian (~86.5°E) is between India Standard Time (IST = UTC+5:30) and Bangladesh Standard Time (BST = UTC+6:00), and Nepal historically chose to set its civil time to the local mean solar time of the Gauri Shankar peak in eastern Nepal (a national symbolic-geography choice in 1986). The 45-minute offset has practical advantages — Nepal pilots' radio communications with regional ATC are easier to deconflict from Indian-airspace traffic clocked in IST. NPT serves approximately 30 million Nepalese people across 7 provinces. Major cities: Kathmandu (1M city, 2.7M metro — capital and gateway to Mount Everest), Pokhara (300K — gateway to Annapurna treks), Lalitpur (290K), Bharatpur (280K). Affects: Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE) trading hours, Mount Everest spring-summit-window climbing-permit timings, Pashupatinath Temple cremation ceremony schedules.
