About the time in Mahawala
Clocks in Mahawala 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 Sri Lanka.
Mahawala follows the civil time used across its region of Sri Lanka; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Mahawala day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 03:30–11:30 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
