Understanding the Delhi – Amsterdam Time Difference
Delhi runs on Asia/Kolkata, currently IST (UTC+5:30). Amsterdam runs on Europe/Amsterdam, currently CEST (UTC+2:00). The gap of 3 hours and 30 minutes is simply the distance between those two offsets.
Amsterdam observes Daylight Saving Time and Delhi does not, so the gap between them shifts by an hour twice a year. The next shift is on Sunday, October 25, 2026, when Amsterdam adjusts its clocks and the difference becomes 4 hours and 30 minutes. Anything scheduled across that date needs checking again.
