When can a team in the US East, Europe and India meet?
Three continents, 10½ hours from end to end. No hour is inside everyone’s 9 to 6, but one hour comes close: early morning in New York, afternoon in London, evening in India.

How the window moves through the year
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.

|---|---|---|---|
| Now (31 Oct 2026) | 1 Nov 2026 | EDT / GMT / IST | None · least awkward hour: 8:00 AM–9:00 AM in New York 12:00 PM–1:00 PM in London 5:30 PM–6:30 PM in India |

Clock changes that move the window
- New York: Sun, 1 Nov 2026: at 2:00 AM clocks go back to 1:00 AM (EDT → EST, UTC−5); Sun, 14 Mar 2027: at 2:00 AM clocks go forward to 3:00 AM (EST → EDT, UTC−4)
- London: Sun, 28 Mar 2027: at 1:00 AM clocks go forward to 2:00 AM (GMT → BST, UTC+1)
- India: no clock changes (no daylight saving time).
Good to know
- Keep the three-way meeting short and rare; do the rest in pairs: London–India in the London morning, New York–London in the New York morning.
- Rotate the inconvenience: some weeks India stays late, some weeks New York starts at 7:30.
- The US, the UK and India change clocks on different dates (India never), so this hour moves twice a year for someone.
Questions
When can a team in the US East, Europe and India meet?
There is no hour inside 09:00–18:00 for everyone. The least awkward hour right now is 8:00 AM–9:00 AM in New York = 12:00 PM–1:00 PM in London = 5:30 PM–6:30 PM in India. The usual compromise is 8:00 or 9:00 AM in New York: the London afternoon and the Indian evening.
