About Comilla Time Zone
Comilla uses the Asia/Dhaka IANA time zone, the standard time zone for all of Bangladesh. The city operates at UTC+6:00 year-round, meaning local time in Comilla is six hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time. If it is 12:00 UTC, it is 6:00 PM in Comilla.
Comilla does not currently observe daylight saving time, and Bangladesh has no active seasonal clock change in normal use. That makes scheduling simpler than with countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, or Australia, where offsets shift during the year. Because Comilla stays fixed at UTC+6, the time difference with cities like London or New York changes when those locations enter or leave DST.

This makes Comilla relatively well aligned with South and Southeast Asian working hours, but less aligned with North American business mornings.
