Bengaluru is a city in India, in Karnataka, with a population of about 8,495,492. It uses the India Time time zone (IANA identifier Asia/Kolkata).

Bengaluru does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC+5:30 all year round. The time difference with places that do change their clocks — such as most of Europe and North America — therefore shifts by one hour twice a year.

Note that Bengaluru uses a non-whole-hour offset: local time differs from UTC by 5 hours and 30 minutes.

Other cities on the same clock include Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Kolkata.

Because Bengaluru lies at 12.97° N, 77.59° E, the length of the day changes only slightly through the year: around the June solstice there are about 12 h 53 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 11 h 22 min.
