About this tool
Plan weekly posting slots against Indian audience windows in IST and see the exact local time for your diaspora audience.
Creator Posting Time Planner India builds a week of posting slots in India Standard Time for the audience you actually have, then converts each slot into the exact local time in the countries your viewers live in. Because IST is a fixed UTC+05:30 with no daylight saving, an IST time maps to one UTC instant; the tool formats that instant with the IANA time-zone database, so a 20:00 IST post correctly reads 10:30 in New York in August and 09:30 in December.

US, UK and Australian times are computed from the real zone rules, not a fixed offset that breaks twice a year.
Working professionals, students, Tier-2 regional, daytime-at-home and diaspora each rank the day differently.
Slots are spread evenly across seven days with the weekday, date and IST time for each.
For a metro, working-professional audience the densest windows are the 8-10 am commute and 7-9 pm after dinner, with weekday lunch (12:30-2:30 pm) a dependable third. Prime evening is also the most competitive slot, so a slightly later 9-11 pm post often holds attention better for long-form.
No. India Standard Time is UTC+05:30 all year, so Indian posting times never shift. What changes is the gap to countries that do observe daylight saving — the difference to New York is 9.5 hours in summer and 10.5 in winter.
Work backwards from their clock. A 7 am IST post is roughly 9:30 pm the previous evening on the US East Coast, and a 11:30 pm IST post lands around 2 pm there — both far better than the Indian prime-time evening, which is the middle of the US night.
Consistency matters more than volume: three to five posts a week that you can sustain beats seven that you cannot. Use the ranked windows to make sure the ones you do publish land in the strongest slots for your audience, and adjust against your own analytics.
