PHP - not getting same time in server and local

I need to get current Indian time from my server located in US-Texas.

I have stored time as UTC timestamp. I am trying this way.

date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
echo date('O').'<br>';
echo date("F j, Y, h:i:s a", time()+(330*60)).'<br>';

I get correct time on my local server.
+0000
September 12, 2015, 10:59:53 am

and this on remote server.
+0000
September 12, 2015, 11:19:14 am

Please see and suggest why time is not same from remote server.

You are giving the time a strange offset to the time with the +(330*60) bit. That is not the right way to do it.

Try

date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Calcutta"); 
echo date("F j, Y, h:i:s a", time() ).'<br>';

Or Try

 ini_set( 'date.timezone', 'Asia/Calcutta' );
 echo date("F j, Y, h:i:s a", time() ).'<br>';

time() function is returning GMT time. try to use echo (new DateTime())->format('r'); instead

Why not directly set your default time zone to Asia/Calcutta?
