Frequently asked questions
What is the time difference between Dhaka and Chennai?
It can change through the year because one or both cities observe daylight saving, so the converter above shows the current difference live rather than a fixed number. Dhaka uses Asia/Dhaka and Chennai uses Asia/Kolkata.
What time is it in Chennai when it's 9:00 AM in Dhaka?
Type 9:00 into the Dhaka field above and the converter shows the matching Chennai time for today, daylight saving included. It also shows the Chennai date in case the time crosses midnight.
Does this converter handle daylight saving between Dhaka and Chennai?
Yes. It uses your browser's own time-zone data (Asia/Dhaka for Dhaka, Asia/Kolkata for Chennai), which carries each region's daylight-saving rules, so the result stays correct all year.
Can it convert Chennai time to Dhaka time as well?
Yes — press the swap button and the converter flips to show Chennai → Dhaka, with the same live clocks and time picker.
