How many hours apart are IST and GST?
GST is 1 hour and 30 minutes behind IST. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just subtract 1 hour 30 min to get the other — so a call between Mumbai and Dubai is always 1 hour 30 min apart.
What's the current time in GST?
Right now the time in Gulf Standard Time (GST) is Monday, June 29, 2026 · 9:54:01 PM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live GST clock.
And what time is it in IST?
And in India Standard Time (IST), it’s currently Monday, June 29, 2026 · 11:24:01 PM. Compare the two and the 1 hour 30 min gap is easy to see.
What's the best time for a IST–GST call?
For example, a 9:00 AM IST meeting takes place at 7:30 AM GST. The trick is to aim for a slot that lands inside normal working hours on both sides. Once you’ve found a time, hit Share on the converter to copy a link with the time built in — easy to send to a colleague. Juggling three or more zones? The meeting planner highlights the hours that overlap for everyone.
Does daylight saving time change the IST–GST difference?
The labels IST and GST are fixed offsets, so the result on this page is always exact. Neither side changes its clocks for daylight saving, so the difference you see here is the same in summer and winter.
How accurate is this IST to GST conversion?
We don’t guess. IST and GST times are worked out from the official IANA time zone database, the trusted standard that operating systems use worldwide. Because daylight-saving rules and regional offsets do change over time, we track those updates rather than relying on a fixed number — which is exactly where many converters slip up.
