When to schedule
Standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Mon–Fri) in San Francisco and Ahmedabad don't overlap on the same weekday. Ahmedabad is 13 hours ahead of San Francisco.
With some flexibility, there are two workable windows outside standard hours, depending on which side takes the early or late slot:
- 7 AM–8 AM in San Francisco (7 PM–8 PM in Ahmedabad) — suggest 7:00 AM San Francisco (7:30 PM Ahmedabad).
- 7 PM–8 PM in San Francisco (7 AM–8 AM the next day in Ahmedabad) — suggest 7:00 PM San Francisco (7:30 AM Ahmedabad).
Either is an early start or late finish for one side, but workable for a one-off meeting.
This window may shift by an hour during daylight saving time.
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.
