If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Tamil Nādu 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.
Around 72,147,030 people live in Tamil Nādu, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Tamil Nādu sits at latitude 11.00, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 26m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
