Convert IST to PT
India Standard Time (IST) to Pacific Time (PT)
Indian engineers, offshore team leads, and project managers in Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Pune convert to Pacific time daily when coordinating with headquarters in San Francisco, Seattle, or Los Angeles. The large gap means most real-time overlap happens at the edges of each team's day.
When it's 12:00 PM IST, it's 11:30 PM PT (previous day)

Scheduling Tips
- For morning standups with the US West Coast, 9:00-10:00 PM IST / 7:30-8:30 AM PST is the most common slot. Keep it brief.
- For demos and reviews, 7:00-8:00 AM IST / 5:30-6:30 PM PST (previous day) lets the US team present at the end of their day while India starts fresh.
- Document decisions asynchronously in shared channels. With a 13.5-hour gap, waiting for a live meeting to unblock work can cost an entire day.
