But maybe you want something else, in which case you should show us what you've got or tell us more about what you want.

    Thanks for the reply. I want London time. Hence i used the following code to find. $now = gmtime() ; print $now; the print is "Sat Aug 20 08:26:46 2011". This is GMT time. London Current time zone is UTC/GMT +1 hour. Hence I need to add 1 hour. Regards Suresh

      Wouldn't it be easier to just get the time in London? 

      use DateTime;
my $dt = DateTime->now( time_zone => 'Europe/London' );
say $dt->strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S');

        The DateTime method is not working. ie, In my system PPM, there is no package in "DateTime" and installed remaining packages like DateTime::TimeZone.. i have downloaded the DateTime module from CPAN. But in this package there is no MakeFile.pl. if i run the DateTime code, wil coming the error like "Can't locate DateTime.pm". Hence only i have go to alternative method for finding the current local time in London. Please provide the solution without using DateTime method. Suresh
