Hello guys,

I am facing a problem in converting a date from following format to a date in the India time zone (UTC+5:30) using C#?

2012-09-13T05:08:03.151Z

Any help in this matter would be appreciable. Please provide references for your answer.

Stuff that I have already tried :

C#

DateTime.ParseExact("2012-09-13T05:08:03.151Z",
                                  "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ssK",
                                  CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)

C#

DateTime.ParseExact("2012-09-13T05:08:03.151Z",
                                  "yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss.SSSZ"
                                  CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)</pre>

C#

string date = "2009-02-25 16:13:00Z"; // Coordinated Universal Time string fromDateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime().ToString("u"); 
DateTime localDateTime = DateTime.Parse(date); // Local .NET timeZone.

C#

string Date = "2009-02-25 16:13:00Z";
DateTime localDateTime = DateTime.Parse(Date); // Local .NET timeZone. 
DateTime utcDateTime = localDateTime.ToUniversalTime();

string nzTimeZoneKey = "New Zealand Standard Time"; 
TimeZoneInfo nzTimeZone = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById(nzTimeZoneKey); 
DateTime nzDateTime = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeFromUtc(utcDateTime, nzTimeZone);

Console.WriteLine("Date : {0}", Date);
Console.WriteLine(" localDateTime: {0}", localDateTime);
Console.WriteLine(" nzTimeZone: {0}", nzTimeZone);
Console.WriteLine(" : {0}", nzDateTime);
Console.ReadLine();
