Planning a Call With India?
Best Time to Contact India
India is several hours ahead of Europe and Africa and considerably ahead of North America. When arranging calls with hotels, travel representatives or your Limitless India Vacations travel consultant, always check the current local time before calling.
A live World Clock can make this much easier, particularly because daylight-saving changes in other countries can affect the time difference with India.
Useful Time Zone Tips

India does not change its clocks seasonally.
Flight Timings
Airline and railway schedules in India are normally displayed according to local Indian time.
