    Hi @Jyoti_avtar 

     

    Pls use convertFromUtc() function to convert UTC to Australia time:

    convertFromUtc(utcNow(),'AUS Eastern Standard Time','dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss tt')

     

     

     

    If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.
