its not international standard time, its indian standard time. (ist) we have it since india is a vast country, and it needs uniformity in time. if there will be different times at different places, then there would be a lot of confusion. hence, to avoid this confusion, median 82'30 degrees passing near allahabad is taken as the standard time throughout the country.
if we follow GMT (+5:30hrs) i.e. greenwich mean time, then too it would be a lot confusing because of the different positions of the sun at different times. so therefore india has adopted its own standard time. IST is followed throughout India, and in Sri Lanka.
hope you find it helpful. happy to help. :))

Each country has several Meridian of longitude and hence the local time . In order to avoid confusion of time each country has its own Standard Time . In India 82 ½ longitude is taken as the standard time. The local time of this Meridian is taken as the standard time throughout the country.
