Why people convert Mumbai to PHT time

Scheduling a call from Mumbai to PHT: a 10:00 AM start in Mumbai lands at 12:30 PM in PHT, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Finding shared working hours: both Mumbai and PHT are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 9:00 AM and 2:30 PM IST time (11:30 AM–5:00 PM PHT). That is roughly 5 hours 30 minutes of usable overlap.
Coordinating a Mumbai-based team with PHT contacts: quoting times in the other side's local clock — not your own — removes the single biggest source of missed meetings.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM IST" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +2h 30m gap is not.
Block 9:00 AM–2:30 PM IST as the recurring meeting window if you work primarily from Mumbai and need PHT colleagues present.

About IST (India Standard Time)

India Standard Time (IST) is the time observed throughout India and Sri Lanka. It is based on the 82.5°E meridian, passing through Mirzapur in Uttar Pradesh. India uses a single time zone despite spanning roughly 30° of longitude, which has been debated. IST does not observe daylight saving time. India is the world's most populous country, making IST one of the most-used time zones globally. The IT outsourcing industry and call centers operate primarily on IST, making the EST-to-IST conversion one of the most searched timezone conversions.

About PHT (Philippine Time)

Philippine Time (PHT) is fixed at UTC+08:00 all year. The Philippines has not observed daylight saving time since 1978, apart from a brief trial in 1990. PHT shares its offset with China Standard Time, Hong Kong Time, Singapore Time, Malaysian Time and Australian Western Standard Time, which makes Manila a convenient bridge for scheduling across East and Southeast Asia. As one of the world's largest centres for business process outsourcing, Manila keeps overlapping hours with both Australia and, on early shifts, the United States, and its contact-centre schedules are usually planned around Manila local time.
