Los Angeles is 12.5 hours behind Kolkata

There is no standard 8-to-6 overlap. Someone joins early or late.

There's no shared 9-to-5 between Kolkata and Los Angeles; at 12.5 hours apart, one city's workday is the other's evening or night. Your best bet is one team taking an early-morning or late-evening call — alternating who stretches keeps it fair over time. These times hold for most of the year, but Los Angeles's daylight saving (which Kolkata doesn't use) shifts them by an hour twice annually.
