Answer:
India's time zone is UTC/GMT (Coordinated Universal Time/Greenwich Mean Time) +5.5 hours. ... The time zone is calculated according to the longitude of 82.5° E. at Shankargarh Fort in Mirzapur (in the Allahabad district of Uttar Pradesh), which was picked as the central meridian for India.

Answer:
To find the time meridian of a country, take the westernmost longitude and the easternmost longitude of that country, take the mean, and find the nearest multiple of 7.5 degree. ... So 82"30 minutes east has been selected as the Standard Meridian Time of India.
India is, 5 hours 30minutes ahead Greenwich mean time
