At this moment the time is: Eastern Time 2:55 AM, Pacific Time 11:55 PM, London 7:55 AM, India (IST) 12:25 PM, Tokyo (JST) 3:55 PM. The values come from the live UTC offsets, including daylight saving, at the moment the page loads.
Each time zone is a fixed offset from UTC that may change twice a year for daylight saving. The converter reads the current offset for both zones and shows the difference in hours, so it stays right when one region changes its clocks and the other does not.
Pick a pair of zones from the list and the result page shows the current times and a table of common working hours converted from one zone to the other, which is handy for scheduling calls.
The pages cover North American zones, Europe, the Gulf, South Asia, East Asia, Australia and New Zealand, and South America.
