The Standard Meridian is based on which the time is calculated for a region. The Standard Meridian of India is 82° 30' E longitude, passing via Mirzapur in Uttar Pradesh. The Equator is the 0° latitude that divides the Earth into two equal hemispheres-the northern and the southern hemispheres. The Tropic of Cancer is 23° 30' N latitude to the north of the Equator and it passes through India. India's territories, including the mainland and the islands, have a coastline of 7516.6 km. This includes the twenty-eight states and eight union territories. Presently, eight union territories are a part of the Indian subcontinent.
