Amazon Connect Time Zone for India Standard Time (IST)

ou can safely use the Asia/Calcutta time zone for your Amazon Connect hours of operation in India. The Asia/Calcutta time zone in Amazon Connect corresponds to the current India Standard Time (IST), which is GMT+5:30.

The city of Calcutta, now known as Kolkata, does not have a separate time zone. The time zone for Kolkata is the same as IST, and Amazon Connect uses the older city name for historical reasons. Many systems, including IANA Time Zone Database, still use the "Asia/Calcutta" identifier for compatibility purposes.

So, you can confidently use the Asia/Calcutta time zone for your Amazon Connect instance to set up hours of operation in India.
