The main purpose of this page is to list the current standard time offsets of different countries, territories and regions. Information on daylight saving time or historical changes in offsets can be found in the individual offset articles (e.g. UTC+01:00) or the country-specific time articles (e.g. Time in Russia).
UTC+5:30 is an identifier for a time offset from UTC of +05:30. This time is used in India [1] and Sri Lanka, [2] and was formerly used in Nepal, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

For most of India's history, ruling kingdoms kept their own local time, typically using the Hindu calendar in both lunar and solar units. [6]
