Looking at Date::ICal version 1.70, it says:

new() handles timezones. It defaults times to UTC (Green­ wich Mean Time, also called Zulu). If you want to set up a time that's in the US "Pacific" timezone, which is GMT-8, use something like: 

my $ical = Date::ICal->new( ical => '19971024T120000',
                            offset => "-0800");

That 'tz' has no effect for me.

Your example gives: 

1..8
ok 1 - new() returned something
ok 2 -   and it's the right class
ok 3 -   sec()
not ok 4 -   min()
#     Failed test (test056.pl at line 19)
#          got: '42'
#     expected: '12'
not ok 5 -   hour()
#     Failed test (test056.pl at line 20)
#          got: '0'
#     expected: '16'
not ok 6 -   day()
#     Failed test (test056.pl at line 21)
#          got: '6'
#     expected: '16'
ok 7 -   month()
ok 8 -   year()
# Looks like you failed 3 tests of 8.

after changing the tz-line to 
offset => '+0530'

This looks correct.

P.S. My sig is no insult, too :-)
