What time-zone overlap can I expect for my Dubai team with India and Europe?

Dubai sits in GST (UTC+4), which is unusually well-placed. From our base in Ahmedabad (IST, UTC+5:30) we have 6-8 hours of daily real-time overlap with Dubai, 9 AM IST = 7:30 AM GST, 5 PM IST = 3:30 PM GST. That’s the highest overlap of any country we work with, effectively a same-time-zone working relationship. We typically schedule a 12 PM GST daily stand-up (Dubai lunch slot), inside your working day. For your European clients (CET, UTC+1) Dubai has 3 hours forward, 9 AM GST = 6 AM CET, 5 PM GST = 2 PM CET, so Dubai-EU overlap is 11 AM, 5 PM GST. For UK clients (GMT/BST), 4-hour gap, afternoon overlap from your side. For US East Coast, minimal overlap (Dubai 5 PM = NYC 8 AM, narrow window). We handle US async via Loom + written briefs from Ahmedabad.
