Answer:

This is because India is a vast country and have a great difference in sunrise timing along East in Gujrat and West in Arrunachal Pradesh. Hence, it is necessary to have a specific time all over the India which is done by taking Standard Meridian of India at 82.300East at the Tropic of Cancer passing through the middle of India.
