Answer

In this case you can use vanilla JavaScript:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">

function show(){
    var timer = new Date().
      toLocaleString('en-US', { timeZone: 'Asia/Kolkata' })
      .split(',')[1]
      .trim();
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = timer
    setTimeout("show()",1000);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="show()">
<p id="demo"></p>
</body>
</html>
