About Shivaji Nagar Time Zone

Shivaji Nagar uses the Asia/Kolkata time zone, which is the standard time zone for all of India. Its offset is UTC+5:30, also known as Indian Standard Time (IST), and this offset remains fixed throughout the year. Unlike many countries in Europe, North America, and Australia, India does not switch between summer time and winter time.

Because Shivaji Nagar does not observe daylight saving time, the local clock stays stable in every month, which simplifies recurring scheduling for domestic travel, train planning, office operations, and customer support coverage inside India. The challenge comes when coordinating internationally: the time difference with cities such as London, New York, and Sydney changes seasonally because those places may move their clocks forward or back while Shivaji Nagar stays at UTC+5:30.

Geographically, Shivaji Nagar is in the state of Maharashtra in western India, near the core urban region of Pune. Its time is the same as Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Kolkata, since the entire country follows one national time standard despite India’s wide east-west span. Compared with nearby regional business centers, Shivaji Nagar is 1 hour 30 minutes ahead of Dubai (UTC+4), 3 hours 30 minutes ahead of Moscow (UTC+3), and 2 hours 30 minutes behind Singapore (UTC+8).

The city is located at 18.53017° N, 73.85263° E, placing it in the Pune region of Maharashtra on the Deccan Plateau.

The local currency is the Indian Rupee (INR), which is the standard currency used for salaries, hotel payments, transport, and everyday transactions throughout India.
