Planning a call between Mumbai and Chicago
No shared business hours. Mumbai and Chicago have no overlap inside a working day, so someone has to take it outside theirs. The closest thing to common ground is 7 am to 9 am in Mumbai (8:30 PM to 10:30 PM in Chicago), when both cities are at least awake.
Daylight saving
Mumbai does not change its clocks. It stays on UTC+5:30 (IST) all year, so the gap to the other city only moves when the other city shifts.
Chicago is on UTC−5 (CDT). Clocks go back one hour on Sunday, November 1, 2026, moving it to UTC−6. Between that date and the other city’s own change, the gap between them is an hour different from usual.
