Best overlap: 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Mumbai is 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM in Manchester.
Target 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Mumbai, which lands at 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM for the Manchester side. Manchester is 5.5 hours behind Mumbai, so the practical overlap is about 4 hours — generous enough for meetings, tight enough to be worth booking ahead. Note that Manchester follows daylight saving while Mumbai stays put, so the times above drift by an hour seasonally.
