Answer 2

Answer:

According to international convention the longitudinal difference between two time meridians should be a multiple of 7.5 degrees, so that time difference is always in half hours or full hours (7.5 deg * 4 min/deg = 30 minutes). ... So 82"30 minutes east has been selected as the Standard Meridian Time of India.
