How Time Zone Conversion Works
Time zone conversion works by comparing the UTC offset of one location to another. Every city or region is measured relative to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which acts as the global reference point for civil time.
IST is 2 hours 30 minutes behind HKT (standard time).
Daylight Saving Time: Neither HKT nor IST observes Daylight Saving Time. The 2h 30m offset is constant year-round with no seasonal variation.
