A large gap with a half-hour edge
Bengaluru uses a half-hour offset, so a San Francisco time on the hour lands on the half-hour in Bengaluru. A Pacific morning can push an Indian participant into the evening. Start by deciding whose workday can flex, then compare the full meeting duration in the planner.
San Francisco, US: America/Los_Angeles (city ID: san-francisco).
Bengaluru, IN: Asia/Kolkata (city ID: bengaluru).
Does the difference change?
The destination-minus-source differences sampled on the 15th of each month in 2027 are +12h 30m, +13h 30m. These are dated examples, not a promise of fixed offsets or a complete historical range. A different reference date may have different rules.
| Source date | San Francisco | Bengaluru |
|---|---|---|
| 2027-01-16 | 10:00 Pacific Standard Time | 2027-01-16 · 23:30 Same day · India Standard Time |
| 2027-07-16 | 10:00 Pacific Daylight Time | 2027-07-16 · 22:30 Same day · India Standard Time |
Daylight-saving rules depend on the city and date. When a local hour is missing or repeated, the converter rejects it or asks which occurrence you mean. Rules can change politically; reconfirm far-future meetings.
