To convert time of other timezone to local time one can use:

date -d '09:30 PDT'
     Fri Jul 19 22:00:00 IST 2013

Similarly to convert localtime to other timezone we can use:

TZ='America/Los_Angeles' date -d '09:30 IST'
     Thu Jul 18 21:00:00 PDT 2013

Files under /usr/share/zoneinfo can be seen to learn other possible values for TZ

Steps learned from http://www.linuxhowtos.org/Tips%20and%20Tricks/timzone_conversion.htm
