About NPT
Nepal Time (NPT) is UTC+5:45. It is used in Nepal, all year.
Nepal Time is UTC+5:45 — the only zone in the world offset by three quarters of an hour, set so that noon falls over Kathmandu rather than over the Indian meridian fifteen minutes away. It breaks almost every piece of software that stores offsets in whole or half hours, and it is fifteen minutes ahead of India rather than the round number people assume.
About ICT
Indochina Time (ICT) is UTC+7. It is used in Bangkok, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Jakarta.
Indochina Time is UTC+7, covering Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, with no daylight saving in any of them. Bangkok and Hanoi keep the same clock, which makes the region unusually simple to schedule across — the complication is only ever with the countries around it, since Myanmar is at UTC+6:30 and Malaysia at UTC+8.
Does this gap change with the seasons?
Neither NPT nor ICT shifts with the seasons, so this 1.25-hour difference holds all year. That is unusual enough to be worth relying on: most cross-continental gaps move twice a year.
This is the reason scheduling systems store an IANA zone such as Region/City rather than an offset or an abbreviation: the zone knows its own rules and the offset does not.

Is ICT ahead of NPT?
