Mumbai is 9.5 hours ahead of Washington, D.C.

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

Mumbai is 9.5 hours ahead of Washington, D.C., which is far enough that a normal 9-to-5 in one city never reaches the other's working hours. One practical option: Washington, D.C. dials in early while it's still late afternoon or evening in Mumbai. These times hold for most of the year, but Washington, D.C.'s daylight saving (which Mumbai doesn't use) shifts them by an hour twice annually.
