Questions

What is the time difference between CST and IST?

Right now IST is 11 hours 30 minutes ahead of CST. The gap can change by an hour when daylight saving time starts or ends, because not every zone switches on the same date (or at all).

How do I convert CST to IST?

Add 11 hours 30 minutes to the CST time. For example, 12:00 PM CST is 11:30 PM IST.

Is it CST or CDT right now?

People often say “CST” all year, but during daylight saving time (mid-March to early November in the US) the zone is on CDT. It's CST right now. The converter above uses the correct one automatically.
