Why people convert Toronto to NPT time

Scheduling a call from Toronto to NPT: a 10:00 AM start in Toronto lands at 7:45 PM in NPT, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Handling a +9h 45m gap: Toronto and NPT have no overlap inside a normal 9-to-5 day, so real-time meetings need an early-morning or late-evening slot on one side. 9:00 AM in NPT is 6:45 PM in Toronto.
Coordinating a Toronto-based team with NPT 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 EDT" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +9h 45m gap is not.
With a +9h 45m gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week Toronto takes the early slot, the next week NPT does.
Toronto: Clocks fall back on Sun, Nov 1, 2026. Re-check this page after that date because the offset changes and so does the +9h 45m gap.

About EST (Eastern Standard Time)

Eastern Standard Time (EST) is observed during the winter months in the eastern part of North America. It covers 23 US states and parts of Canada including Ontario and Quebec. EST is the most populous time zone in the United States, home to major financial centers like New York City and global organizations headquartered in Washington D.C. During daylight saving time (March–November), clocks shift to Eastern Daylight Time (EDT, UTC-04:00). The time zone also covers parts of the Caribbean and Central America including Panama, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands.

About NPT (Nepal Time)

Nepal Time (NPT) runs at UTC+05:45, one of only a handful of time zones worldwide that are not a whole or half hour from UTC. Nepal set its offset to 5 hours 45 minutes ahead of UTC in 1986 to mark the country's position between the 75°E and 90°E meridians; Kathmandu's solar time sits just over 5 hours 41 minutes ahead of Greenwich, so the 45-minute offset tracks the sun more closely than either 5:30 or 6:00 would. Nepal does not observe daylight saving time, so NPT is fixed all year. The offset makes Nepal 15 minutes ahead of India Standard Time (UTC+05:30) and 2 hours 15 minutes ahead of Dubai (UTC+04:00).
