I'm guessing your timezone is set to Indian time, and you want BST? Check the timezone setting on your system, which varies depending on the operating system. For example, on POSIX systems you need to alter the environment variable TZ.	[reply]

Hi, Thanks for your reply.I'm not sure about changing the environment variable will change the `Finance::Quote` default timezone . There might be some method like `setCurrency` which will take care of the timezone settings Please suggest me on this Update : Yahoo fetches all the asia symbols from his singapore domain. So it returns the value in `GST` format. I have used `DateTime` module to get the `Asia/Calcutta` timezone information. Thanks, - Raja	[reply] [d/l] [select]
