When to schedule
Standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Mon–Fri) in Hawaii Time and India Standard Time don't overlap on the same weekday. India Standard Time is 16 hours ahead of Hawaii Time.
With some flexibility, there’s a workable window outside standard hours:
- 4 PM–8 PM in Hawaii Time (7 AM–11 AM the next day in India Standard Time) — suggest 6:00 PM Hawaii Time (9:30 AM India Standard Time).
This means an early start or late finish for one side, but it’s a reasonable slot for a one-off meeting.
Public holidays in 2026
National public holidays can affect availability — a counterpart is likely off work on their own holidays, so it's worth planning meetings and deadlines around them.
