Indian Chagos Time (ICT)

The differences between time zones to each other are always specified in relation to the "Universal Time Coordinated" (UTC), the time on the prime meridian (zero longitude). Phoenix, for example, is on the 122nd degree of longitude west and thus in the UTC-7 time zone. Indian Chagos Time is consistent with UTC +6.

The Indian Chagos Time does not have an associated daylight saving time.

The Indian Chagos Time applies only to British Indian Ocean Territory.

There are some other countries, in which the clock strikes the same hour. These countries have the same temporal distance to UTC (Universal Time Coordinated):
