Explanation by: Admin
The Indian Standard Time is computed on the basis of 82.5 degrees East longitude from a clock tower in Mirzapur near Allahabad in the state of Uttar Pradesh, as it is near the corresponding longitude reference line. The Indian Standard time has been observed for two hundred years (5½ hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
