IST to SAST: convert India Standard Time to South Africa Standard Time

SAST is 3:30 hours behind IST all year.

Neither clock changes for daylight saving, so the gap never moves.

IST also abbreviates Israel Standard Time (UTC+2) and Irish Standard Time (UTC+1). These pages use the Indian meaning.
