Javascript code is

d = new Date();
utc = d.getTime() + (d.getTimezoneOffset() * 60000);
nd = new Date(utc + (3600000*+5.5));
var ist =  nd.toLocaleString();
console.log("IST now is : " +ist);

You are correct the Date function of javascript return your system time. Actually there was link which used to work before JSON time service "json-time.appspot." is broken. Anyone have a replacement?

the link is broken but if you can setup the environment the guy mention in github it is good (personally i never tried )

the best what i have done in this case is use accuweather time API: https://apidev.accuweather./developers/timeZones

going to use for personal that fine for mercial check this link:

Is the AccuWeather API free for mercial use?

I believe this solve your problem
