Why people convert AEST to Tehran time

Scheduling a call from AEST to Tehran: a 10:00 AM start in AEST lands at 3:30 AM in Tehran, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Finding shared working hours: both AEST and Tehran are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 3:30 PM and 5:00 PM AEST time (9:00 AM–10:30 AM IRST). That is roughly 1 hours 30 minutes of usable overlap.
Keeping family and friends in sync: knowing that 8:00 PM in AEST is 1:30 PM in Tehran makes it easy to avoid calling at 3 AM.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM AEST" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a -6h 30m gap is not.
Block 3:30 PM–5:00 PM AEST as the recurring meeting window if you work primarily from AEST and need Tehran colleagues present.
