About PKT
Pakistan Standard Time (PKT) is UTC+5. It is used in Pakistan, all year.
Pakistan Standard Time is UTC+5 and does not change through the year — daylight saving has been tried twice and abandoned twice. It sits half an hour behind India, which is the only pair of neighbouring countries in the region separated by a half-hour step rather than a whole one, and a common source of missed calls across that border.
About MDT
Mountain Daylight Time (MDT) is UTC−6. It is used in Denver and Salt Lake City from March to November.
Mountain Daylight Time is UTC−6, the summer clock for Denver and Salt Lake City. During those months it coincides with Central Standard Time, which is a genuine source of confusion in a country that spans both: a meeting at "6pm MDT" and one at "6pm CST" are the same instant, but the second is not a time anyone is actually on in summer.
Does this gap change with the seasons?
This gap is seasonal. The abbreviations themselves are fixed offsets, but the region on MDT switches to MST (UTC−7) from November to March. So the 11-hour figure on this page is correct for the part of the year when both places are actually on these abbreviations, and changes by an hour outside it.
PKT does not shift, so the whole change comes from one side. A recurring meeting fixed in PKT will appear to move by an hour for everyone on the other side, twice a year, without anyone changing anything.
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.
Frequently asked questions
What time is 9:00 AM PKT in MDT?
9:00 AM PKT is 10:00 PM MDT (previous day).
Is MDT ahead of PKT?
MDT is 11 hours behind PKT.
Which time zone does this use?
PKT is UTC+5 and MDT is UTC−6. Both abbreviations denote a single fixed offset, so this conversion never shifts with daylight saving — what changes is which abbreviation a place is using at the time.
