Current time in New Delhi

New Delhi time zone

New Delhi uses the single India Standard Time observed across the country. The national capital shares its clock with Mumbai; the half-hour offset makes minute-level checking important when comparing an invitation with overseas calendars.

The named time zone for New Delhi is Asia/Kolkata. For 2026, January 15 uses UTC+5:30 and July 15 uses UTC+5:30. These two reference dates have the same offset; they are not a guarantee about every historical or future date. The live reading above uses your browser's time-zone data and your device clock.

When organizing a call to New Delhi, include the full calendar date and a named zone in the invitation. Check the converter for that date instead of adding a remembered number of hours: the other person's region may change clocks even when this destination does not. Overnight flights and late calls can arrive on a different local day. Keep New Delhi alongside other destinations in the world clock to compare today's readings; use the date-specific converter for future appointments.
