About the time in Jalpaiguri
The zone identifier Asia/Kolkata is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Kolkata keeps pointing at Kolkata time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Jalpaiguri sits at latitude 26.47, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 52m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Clocks in Jalpaiguri stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +5:30 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in India.
