🇮🇳 Бангалор

Home to about 8.5 million people, Bengaluru sits on the Deccan Plateau of southern India near 13 degrees north latitude. It runs on India Standard Time at UTC+5:30, the single half-hour offset used across the whole country, and observes no daylight saving; local clocks stay five and a half hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time in every season. The city's elevated position gives it a milder climate than its low latitude alone would suggest. India's fractional offset distinguishes it from the whole-hour bands used by most of the world, and Bengaluru's fixed value keeps time conversions to other regions consistent throughout the year.
