\huge\mathcal\color{teal} Answer :-

Around the earth there are 360 longitudes. Each longitude has 4 minutes time difference. As we move to the east we see time advancing. In countries with large longitudinal extent there can can be several longitudes passing through the country. To have a fixed time all over the country, the central longitude's time is considered to be the country's standard time. This time is called the standard time.

The main importance of standard time is that it helps in organising a uniform schedule for transport like railways and airways. It cuts down on costs that would be otherwise incurred on adjusting to different time schedules and the subsequent loss of time. It also enhances economic productivity across the country by helping to coordinate economic activities.

Hope it helps !
