About This Overlap
Oman is a key node in India–Middle East trade and has ~1 million Indians, mostly in Muscat. IST is 1h 30m behind GST year-round — same as UAE. India's 9 AM = 7:30 AM Oman; India's 12 PM = 10:30 AM Oman — good daytime overlap. Oman's oil-dependent economy and port of Salalah are critical for Indian re-exports and Arabian Gulf shipping.
