About time in Amritsar

Amritsar keeps India Standard Time, UTC+5:30 from UTC all year. The offset never changes, so any difference between you and Amritsar moves only when your own clocks do.

Amritsar shares the zone Asia/Kolkata with Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Kolkata, so a time here is also the time there. One canonical page per zone keeps the difference honest: the settlement name changes, the clock does not.

Offsets and daylight saving rules come from the IANA time zone database — see IANA time zone notes for what that data does and does not promise about future dates.
