Colombo is 2.5 hours ahead of Tel Aviv

Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM in Tel Aviv is 10:30 AM to 6:30 PM in Colombo.

Aim for 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM Tel Aviv time — that's 10:30 AM to 6:30 PM over in Colombo. Despite the 2.5-hour difference, an 8-hour overlap keeps things simple and gives both teams breathing room. These times hold for most of the year, but Tel Aviv's daylight saving (which Colombo doesn't use) shifts them by an hour twice annually.
