Work hours: 09:00–18:00 local, Monday to Friday. When the cities change clocks on different dates, the window shifts for a few weeks.

Good to know
- In summer the window is 9:00 AM–1:30 PM in London (10:00 AM–2:30 PM Berlin, 1:30–6:00 PM in India) when everyone works 9 to 6; in winter it is an hour shorter.
- India doesn’t change clocks, so after the last Sunday of October everything in India is an hour later relative to Europe.
- Many Indian teams work 10:00 to 7:00. If yours does, set it in your planner; the window grows by an hour.
