CET vs IST
CET (Central European Time) runs at UTC+1 and IST (India Standard Time) at UTC+5:30. IST is normally 4 hours 30 minutes ahead of CET.
CET is the standard time (UTC+1); when daylight saving is in effect it becomes CEST (UTC+2). The live clock on this page always shows the current offset. IST stays at UTC+5:30 all year round — it does not observe daylight saving time.
