About Pacific Daylight Time (PDT)
Pacific Daylight Time (PDT, IANA: America/Los_Angeles during DST window) is the summer-time variant of PST, set at UTC-7:00 — observed from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November per the Energy Policy Act of 2005, which extended the US DST window by ~4 weeks compared to the prior Uniform Time Act of 1966 schedule. PDT is the same offset as Mountain Standard Time (MST), creating a confusing situation where Arizona (which doesn't observe DST and stays on MST year-round) shares the same clock as California during summer months but is one hour behind during winter. PDT is used by ~50 million people in California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, British Columbia, Yukon, and Baja California Norte. Affects: West-Coast NYSE/Nasdaq market open shifts to 06:30 PDT, professional sports West Coast game-time broadcasts to East Coast PDT prime time, and US Pacific Fleet operations from Naval Base San Diego.
About India Standard Time (IST)
India Standard Time (IST, IANA: Asia/Kolkata) is the civil time of the Republic of India and Sri Lanka, set at UTC+5:30 — one of the world's most populous 30-minute-offset time zones. India does not observe Daylight Saving Time per the Government of India directive (a brief DST trial in 1942-1945 during WWII was discontinued; subsequent proposals from 2010-2017 were rejected by the Indian Government citing minimal energy savings + agricultural sector disruption). IST is defined as the local mean solar time at 82.5°E longitude (passing through Shankargarh fort in Uttar Pradesh, with the reference clock at the National Physical Laboratory in New Delhi per the Indian Institute of Astrophysics). The 30-minute offset is preserved because India's east-west extent (68°E to 97°E) spans ~28° of longitude — approximately 2 hours of solar time — and the central meridian is most representative for a single unified zone. IST serves approximately 1.4 billion people in India + 22 million in Sri Lanka (Sri Lanka observes SLST = UTC+5:30, identical to IST). Major cities: Mumbai (12.5M), Delhi (16.8M, NCR 29M), Bengaluru (8.4M), Hyderabad (10M), Chennai (7M), Kolkata (4.5M), Ahmedabad (5.5M), Pune (3.1M). Affects: BSE/NSE stock exchanges, IPL Indian Premier League cricket schedules.
