About Pātan Time Zone
Pātan uses the IANA time zone Asia/Kolkata, which is the standard time zone for all of India. Its UTC offset is UTC+5:30, also known as India Standard Time (IST), and this offset remains the same throughout the year.
Pātan does not observe daylight saving time, so its local clock does not shift in March, October, or any other season. That makes scheduling more predictable than in regions such as Europe, North America, or Australia, where offsets change during DST transitions and can temporarily alter the time gap with India by one hour.
Pātan is located in the state of Gujarat in western India, north of Ahmedabad and relatively close to major commercial corridors linking Gujarat’s manufacturing, textiles, agriculture, and export industries. Compared with nearby international business centers, Pātan is 1 hour ahead of Dubai (UTC+4), 4 hours 30 minutes ahead of London during GMT, 3 hours 30 minutes ahead of London during BST, and 9 hours 30 minutes ahead of New York during EST or 8 hours 30 minutes ahead during EDT.
