Every longitude is 4mins then for west we should be added and for the East we should subtract. For example
What is the time in Allahabad {82 and a half degree} when it is noon at Greenwich?
Each longitude 4 mins then multiply 4 * 82.5.
Answer: 5hrs 30 mins now add that's it and subtract in the case of east.

Noontime means 12:00pm we know that the difference between GMT and IST is 5.30hrs
So, GMT = 12:00 - 5.30 = 6:30am.
So, GMT = 12:00 - 5.30 = 6:30am.

IST is 5.5 hr forward in summer and 4.5 hr forward in winter as compare to GMT.
If 12 pm here then 6:30 am in GMT in summer and 7:30 am in winter.
If 12 pm here then 6:30 am in GMT in summer and 7:30 am in winter.

If it is 82.5° of GMT then it should be noon i.e. 12 plus 5.30 equal 17.30 hours.

If we go from west to east we will add 4 min to every 1 degree, so 82.5*4 = 330/60 = 5.5 hr.
Therefore 12-5.5 = 6.30 hr.
Therefore 12-5.5 = 6.30 hr.

Guys here is a simple rule.
When we go towards west then the time decrease and when we go towards east then time increases. So IST is ahead of 0 degree longitude, so to reach the Greenwich time we will have to go towards west so :- 12-5.30 = 6:30.
When we go towards west then the time decrease and when we go towards east then time increases. So IST is ahead of 0 degree longitude, so to reach the Greenwich time we will have to go towards west so :- 12-5.30 = 6:30.

ARVIND, its correct. When it is noon IST at Allahabad in India, the time at Greenwich, London, will be 0630 because its 5. 5 times ahead of GMT.
0630+0530=12.
If noon at Greenwich then 1730 in India.
0630+0530=12.
If noon at Greenwich then 1730 in India.
