New York City and Mumbai Time Difference

Best time for family calls

Scheduling a family call between New York City and Mumbai takes a little planning. New York City is 9.5 hours behind Mumbai, which means there's no window that feels comfortable for everyone at the same time. The most manageable option is early evening in New York City — around 7 pm — which puts Mumbai at 4:30 am. Someone will need to stretch a little, but at least no one's setting a middle-of-the-night alarm. Weekends tend to give the most flexibility if you can agree on a time in advance.
