IST vs NST: what's the time gap?

NST is 9 hours behind IST. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just subtract 9 hours to get the other — so a call between Mumbai and St. John's is always 9 hours apart.

What time is it in NST right now?

Right now the time in Newfoundland Standard Time (NST) is Monday, June 29, 2026 · 2:24:01 PM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live NST clock.

What time is it in IST right now?

And in India Standard Time (IST), it’s currently Monday, June 29, 2026 · 11:24:01 PM. Compare the two and the 9 hours gap is easy to see.

When is a good time to schedule a IST to NST meeting?

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.

How does daylight saving affect IST to NST?

The labels IST and NST are fixed offsets, so the result on this page is always exact. One side switches between standard and summer time while the other stays put, so the real-world gap can shift by an hour for part of the year. It's worth checking which label a region is actually using before you lock in a time.

Why can you trust this IST to NST converter?

Every conversion here is calculated from the IANA time zone database — the same source your phone, computer, and browser rely on. Plenty of tools hard-code a single offset, which quietly goes wrong whenever a region changes its rules or flips for daylight saving. We follow the real rules instead, so IST to NST stays accurate for today and for any past or future date you type in.
