Best times to propose
- 1. 2pm in Mumbai · 9am in Paris — Right at the edge of someone's day
- 2. 3pm in Mumbai · 10am in Paris — Comfortable mid-day slot on both sides
- 3. 4pm in Mumbai · 11am in Paris — Comfortable mid-day slot on both sides
Avoid 9am Mumbai time and 10am Mumbai time — inside working hours locally but outside them for the other city.
When the gap changes in the next twelve months
- Sunday, March 28, 2027 — Paris goes from 4 hours 30 minutes behind to 3 hours 30 minutes behind Mumbai.
- Sunday, October 31, 2027 — Paris goes from 3 hours 30 minutes behind to 4 hours 30 minutes behind Mumbai.
Recurring meetings set as a fixed clock time in one city will move by an hour for the other on these dates.
Public holidays to avoid
Dates where one side is off work while the other is not are the most common cause of no-shows on this route.
- Wednesday, November 11, 2026 — Armistice Day — Paris is off, Mumbai is working.
- Friday, December 25, 2026 — Christmas Day — Paris is off, Mumbai is working.
With 4 shared working hours, Mumbai and Paris can run standing meetings without anyone giving up an evening — as long as the slot sits inside that window on both sides of the next clock change.
Sending a booking link avoids the arithmetic entirely: each side picks a time in their own zone and both calendars get the correct local time, including after a daylight-saving change. See how LemCall handles cross-timezone bookings.
