Upcoming conference deadlines in India (IST) time

Questions

Is AoE ahead of or behind India (IST)?

Behind. AoE is the last timezone on Earth, so it’s always earlier there than in India and Sri Lanka. When a date ends in AoE, it has already ended everywhere else.

Does AoE change with daylight saving time?

No. AoE is fixed at UTC−12 all year. India Standard Time doesn’t use daylight saving either, so the gap is always 17 hours 30 minutes.

Why do conferences use AoE?

It’s the latest timezone, so no author anywhere loses part of the final day. If it’s still the deadline date somewhere on Earth, you’re on time. More about AoE.
