Country coordinates
India Coordinates
India uses a single civil time, India Standard Time (Asia/Kolkata, UTC+5:30), despite a wide longitude span. That half-hour offset is a frequent source of conversion mistakes. City elevations range from near-sea-level Mumbai and Chennai to the Deccan Plateau around Bengaluru.
