The Earth in its rotation covers a distance of 1° longitude in 4 minutes. The places located on different longitude have different local times. To keep the uniform system of time, the world has been divided into 24 time zones. India has a longitudinal extent of 30° from Arunachal Pradesh in the East to Gujarat in the West. This accounts for a time difference of 2 hours. However, to keep the standard time across the whole country, 82° 30' E longitude, the central longitude of India is taken as the standard meridian of India and it's local time is the IST across the whole country.
