US East + West + India Meeting Time
Find the best meeting time for teams across New York, Mumbai, and Los Angeles. See work hour overlap and ranked time slots.
The EST-IST-PST triangle spans US coast-to-coast plus India, creating a 13.5-hour spread from PST to IST. This is one of the most common corridors for Silicon Valley and New York tech companies with offshore engineering teams in India. Honest assessment: comfortable three-way overlap during standard work hours is near-zero. Most successful teams accept this and design around it rather than fighting it.

Scheduling Tips
- Accept that comfortable three-way meetings are not possible. Schedule a 15-minute handoff call at 8:30 AM EST / 7:00 PM IST (PST team optional) for the India-to-US transition, and keep PST-IST interaction asynchronous.
- If three-way syncs are truly required, the least painful time is 8:00 AM EST / 5:00 AM PST / 6:30 PM IST — but limit these to weekly cadence and keep them under 30 minutes to respect the West Coast's early morning.
- During US daylight saving time (March–November), the IST handoff shifts one hour earlier (6:00 PM IST instead of 7:00 PM). Adjust your handoff calendar accordingly — this is the one seasonal change that affects this corridor.
