About the time in Gandhinagar
Gandhinagar sits at latitude 23.24, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 47m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:18 and sunset at 07:05 local time, giving 12h 47m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (23.24, 72.66) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Gandhinagar.
Gandhinagar runs on Asia/Kolkata, which puts the city UTC +5:30 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
