Explanation:

If you are east, your time will be after, or plus, GMT. Put the minus or plus sign in front of the number you found from the previous step and that's your GMT. Chicago is west of the Prime Meridian, so Chicago will be - 6 GMT, or six hours less than the time at the Prime Meridian.

LSTM = The local standard time meridian, measured in degrees, which runs through the center of each time zone. It can be calculated by multiplying the differences in hours from Greenwich Mean Time by 15 degrees per hour. Positive = East, and negative = West

Explanation: In India, the longitude of 82½° E (82° 30' E) is considered the standard meridian. The local time at this meridian is taken as the standard time for the whole country. It is known as Indian Standard Time (IST).
