Taking 9 AM to 5 PM on each clock as the working day, the two zones are never at work at the same moment, so a meeting means an early start or a late finish on one side. _Figure: A day on IST clocks with IST and PST working hours, 9 AM to 5 PM on each clock. They share no hours._ One day on IST clocks, with the same moments read on PST clocks underneath. A team spread across two time zones has fewer chances to notice someone drifting away. TeamPredict reads public LinkedIn signals to flag resignation risk early, wherever people work. ## The gap between IST and PST moves between 12 hours 30 minutes and 13 hours 30 minutes during the year. India Standard Time never changes its clocks, but the United States does, so the gap moves by an hour each time Pacific Time moves. _Figure: The gap between IST and PST through 2026 and 2027, coloured by size: 12 hours 30 minutes, 13 hours 30 minutes._ Each bar is one calendar year, January on the left. Days are coloured by the gap between IST and PST. ### These are the clock changes of both zones in 2026 and 2027.

IST on this page means India Standard Time, UTC+5:30, which India keeps all year. The same letters are also used for Irish Standard Time and Israel Standard Time. Pacific Time is PST (UTC−8) in winter and PDT (UTC−7) in summer. People write PST all year, and this page does too; the clock reads PDT right now. It moves its clocks forward at 2:00 AM on the second Sunday in March and back at 2:00 AM on the first Sunday in November. ## These nearby time zone pairs show the time right now too. - [PST to IST](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-zone-converter/pst-to-ist) - [IST to EST](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-zone-converter/ist-to-est) - [IST to CST](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-zone-converter/ist-to-cst) - [EST to IST](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-zone-converter/est-to-ist) - [PST to EST](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-zone-converter/pst-to-est) - [PST to CST](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-zone-converter/pst-to-cst) - [CST to IST](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-zone-converter/cst-to-ist) The [time zone converter](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-zone-converter) reads one moment on up to 12 clocks, the [military time converter](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/military-time-converter) turns 24-hour times into AM and PM, and the [time duration calculator](https://www.teampredict.ai/tools/time-duration-calculator) measures the hours between two moments. ## Here are four questions about IST to PST, answered. What is 9 AM IST in PST? 9:00 AM IST is 8:30 PM PST the day before, and 5:00 PM IST is 4:30 AM PST. From Sunday, November 1, 2026 the gap is 13 hours 30 minutes, so 9:00 AM IST is 7:30 PM PST the day before. What is the time difference between IST and PST? India Standard Time (IST) is 12 hours 30 minutes ahead of Pacific Time (PST). The gap between IST and PST moves between 12 hours 30 minutes and 13 hours 30 minutes during the year. India Standard Time never changes its clocks, but the United States does, so the gap moves by an hour each time Pacific Time moves. After today, it becomes 13 hours 30 minutes on Sunday, November 1, 2026 and then 12 hours 30 minutes on Sunday, March 14, 2027. Does India change its clocks? No. India Standard Time stays at UTC+5:30 all year, so the gap to Pacific Time only moves when PT does. In 2026: Mar 8 and Nov 1. In 2027: Mar 14 and Nov 7. The letters IST also stand for Irish and Israel Standard Time; this page uses India. What is a good time for a meeting between IST and PST? No time is inside 9 AM to 5 PM on both clocks. With an early start or a late finish (7 AM to 9 PM on both sides) there are 2 hours 30 minutes: 7:00 AM to 9:30 AM IST (6:30 PM to 9:00 PM PST, the day before). ## Turnover is cheaper to prevent than to calculate.
