About AEST and IST
Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT) is used in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane. Sydney and Melbourne shift to AEDT from October to April; Brisbane stays on AEST.
India Standard Time (IST) is used across all of India, including Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai and Kolkata. India does not observe daylight saving time.
Time difference between AEST and IST
IST is 5 hours 30 minutes behind AEST in winter (January) and 4 hours 30 minutes behind AEST in summer (July), because of daylight saving changes. The clocks and table above are computed live from the official IANA time zone database in your browser, so daylight saving transitions are always already included.
