AUTO follows the operating system. Working hours drive the green banding on every grid. All four persist on this device only.

IST to UTC

IST is UTC+5:30 and UTC is UTC+0 today — UTC is 5½ hours behind IST. Abbreviations are for reading: this page resolves IST to Asia/Kolkata and UTC to UTC, which are the names that do not go ambiguous.

IST: India — Irish and Israel Standard Time share the letters.
