Question :

Which is the central meridian of India​?

Explanation:Allahabad

India, under the British Raj, did not adopt the international standard time zones until 1905 when the meridian passing through Allahabad at 82.50 degree east of Greenwich Meridian longitude was picked as the central meridian for India, corresponding to a single time zone for the country.

Encyclopedic entry. The prime meridian is the line of 0° longitude, the starting point for measuring distance both east and west around the Earth. The prime meridian is arbitrary, meaning it could be chosen to be anywhere.
