Converting Western European Time to India Standard Time
Western European Time (WET) and India Standard Time (IST) are separated by a 5 hours and 30 minutes time difference. IST is 5 hours and 30 minutes ahead of WET. WET is UTC+0, used in Portugal, United Kingdom, Ireland, while IST is UTC+5:30, used in India, Sri Lanka.
When converting from WET to IST, the key reference points to remember are: 9:00 AM WET equals 2:30 PM IST, 12:00 PM noon WET equals 5:30 PM IST, and 5:00 PM WET equals 10:30 PM IST. The conversion table above shows every hour of the day mapped between these two time zones.
Scheduling Across WET and IST
For professionals scheduling meetings between WET and IST, finding overlapping business hours is essential. Standard business hours are typically 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in each time zone. Given the 5 hours and 30 minutes difference, the window of overlap may be limited. Use the highlighted working hours in the conversion table above to quickly identify suitable meeting times.
Daylight Saving Time Considerations
WET observes Daylight Saving Time, switching to WEST (UTC+1) during summer months. IST does not observe DST, staying at UTC+5:30 year-round. During DST transitions, the time difference between these zones may temporarily change by 1 hour. Always verify the current offset during spring and fall transition periods.
