Daylight saving advisory

Tel Aviv observes daylight saving time; Bangalore does not. The effective time difference between the two cities therefore shifts by one hour twice a year. In 2026, the change dates that matter for this pair are:

  • Spring shift in Tel Aviv — last Sunday of March (Europe) or second Sunday of March (North America)
  • Autumn shift in Tel Aviv — last Sunday of October (Europe) or first Sunday of November (North America)

If you book a recurring meeting that already sits at the edge of the overlap window, expect it to drop out for roughly four weeks each spring and autumn when the windows realign.

Business-hours context for Bangalore and Tel Aviv

Standard business hours in Bangalore run 10:00–19:00 local time, with the weekend on Saturday and Sunday. In Tel Aviv, standard hours are 9:00–17:00 with the weekend on Friday and Saturday.

The weekend days are not the same in both cities. A Friday meeting in Tel Aviv is a weekend in Tel Aviv; account for that when picking recurring slots.
