Best overlap: 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Auckland is 8:45 AM to 10:45 AM in Kathmandu.
Both teams are at their desks between 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Auckland and 8:45 AM to 10:45 AM in Kathmandu. Kathmandu is 7.25 hours behind Auckland, leaving a tight 2-hour window. Book 4:00 PM in Auckland (8:45 AM in Kathmandu) early and you'll dodge the daily scramble. Note the seasonal wrinkle: when Auckland is on daylight saving and Kathmandu isn't, the gap between them grows or shrinks by an hour.
