Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the difference between GMT and UTC?
A: For most practical purposes, GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) and UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) are the same. UTC is the modern, more precise standard by which the world regulates time, while GMT is a historic time zone. Time zones are often expressed as offsets from UTC (e.g., IST is UTC+5:30).
Q: Does this account for Daylight Saving Time (DST)?
A: Yes. By using IANA time zone names (e.g., 'Europe/London'), the converter automatically accounts for whether DST is active in that region on the selected date, which is a major advantage over manual calculation.
