India operates on a single time zone called Indian Standard Time (IST), which is:

🕒 UTC +5:30 hours

That means when it’s 12:00 noon in London (GMT), it’s 5:30 PM in India. India does not observe daylight saving time, so the time remains the same year-round.

India experiences a diverse climate due to its vast geography. Here's a general idea:

Summer (April to June): Hot and dry, especially in North & Central India, temperatures can reach 40°C+ (104°F).

Monsoon (July to September): Rainy season across most of the country, especially the South and coastal areas.

Autumn/Winter (October to March): The best time to visit! Cooler, pleasant weather across most regions, ideal for sightseeing.

Hill stations & mountains (e.g., Kashmir, Himachal, Sikkim) can be much colder year-round, sometimes snowy in winter.

Check the weather for your specific destinations before packing or ask us for guidance!
