Best overlap: 8:30 AM to 1:30 PM in Dublin is 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Mumbai.
If you set up a recurring sync, 8:30 AM to 1:30 PM in Dublin (1:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Mumbai) is the natural home for it. Mumbai is 4.5 hours ahead of Dublin, leaving about 5 hours of daily overlap — enough for most meetings if you don't leave them too late in the day. Finally, Dublin observes daylight saving and Mumbai doesn't, so this window shifts by an hour for part of the year — recheck it each spring and autumn.
