IST to EST Time Converter

Convert any India Standard Time (IST) to Eastern Time (EST / New York) with the tool below. India does not observe daylight saving, but Eastern Time does — so the offset between IST and New York shifts by an hour between summer and winter. This converter applies the correct offset for the date you pick, so interviews and handoffs land at the right time on both sides.

How to use this converter

1. Enter the date and time in India Standard Time.
2. The converter shows the equivalent Eastern Time, with daylight saving applied for that date.
3. Use the result to schedule the call or meeting in both zones at once.

Worked example

A 6:30 PM IST team handoff lands at 9:00 AM EST in winter (UTC−5) and 10:00 AM EDT in summer (UTC−4). The converter picks the right offset for the date, so the India team hands over at the correct New York time instead of an hour off during a daylight-saving transition.
