Hello Members,

Hope you are doing good!!

Here i am trying to print the date and time with time zone, But not getting the time zone..

public static String GetTimestamp(DateTime value)

{

return string.Format("{0:MMM-dd-yyyy hh:mm tt}", value);

}

Besides to Time stamp we need to get the time zone...

Can any one guide me here...

Thank you in advance!!

Check this.
TimeZone curTimeZone = TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone;
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("{0:MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm tt}-{1}", DateTime.Now, curTimeZone.StandardName));
TimeZoneInfo India_Standard_Time = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("India Standard Time");
DateTime dateTime_Indian = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeFromUtc(DateTime.UtcNow, India_Standard_Time);
Console.WriteLine("In IST- " + dateTime_Indian.ToString("MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm tt"));

It needs to show IST in short format...

But it is showing Indian standard time.

public static String GetTimestamp(DateTime value)
{
TimeZone curTimeZone = TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone;
return string.Format("{0:MMM-dd-yyyy hh:mm tt}-{1}", value, curTimeZone.StandardName);
TimeZoneInfo India_Standard_Time = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("India Standard Time");
DateTime dateTime_Indian = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeFromUtc(DateTime.UtcNow, India_Standard_Time);
Console.WriteLine("In IST- " + dateTime_Indian);
}

Hey, IST means India Standard Time and I think you are getting time in Indian Standard Time. So what's the problem?

Try this for IST
TimeZoneInfo India_Standard_Time = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("India Standard Time");
DateTime dateTime_Indian = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeFromUtc(DateTime.UtcNow, India_Standard_Time);
Console.WriteLine("In IST- " + dateTime_Indian);
