it's so so simple as we know that our India is extended from east to west about 30 degrees of longitude. Due to it's great longitudinal extent,the sun rises or sets almost two hours earlier inner the easternmost part in the westernmost part.

From Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh there is a time lag of two hours. Hence, time along the Standard Meridian of India (82° 30' E) passing through Mirzapur (in Uttar Pradesh) is taken as the standard time for the whole country. Otherwise different regions of India would have different times which would create problems; so, to have one common standard times for the whole country has been selected and called Indian Standard Time (IST).
