The Indian government chose a standard time of UTC+5:30, and the Bangladesh government chose a standard time of UTC+6.

In September of 1942, both countries switched from UTC+5:30 to UTC+6:30, but in October of 1945 only India switched back to UTC+5:30, where they have remained since. In September of 1951, Bangladesh switched from UTC+6:30 to UTC+6, and the only time since then that they changed their clocks is when they tried Daylight Saving Time in 2009.
