When it is noon IST at Allahabad in India, the time at Greenwich, London, will be

  • A.midnight ,GMT
  • B.1730 hours
  • C.0630 hours
  • D.None of the above

Answer: C

It will be 0630 hours GMT.

Indian Standard Time is set by the 82°30′E meridian, which passes near Allahabad, and is 5 hours 30 minutes ahead of Greenwich: \[12{:}00 - 5{:}30 = 06{:}30\] The offset is that odd half hour because the country spans nearly 30 degrees of longitude and a single central meridian was chosen.
