Hi @Sandeep_Raju, I would recommend having a look at [this thread](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/convert-elasticsearch-date-time-field-from-utc-to-local-time/283441) which discusses a similar problem and gives a good over of the fact that Kibana makes use of UTC and how to work with that. It might be that you need to amend the date format on ingestion, and for the existing documents potentially use the [`update_by_query` API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.10/docs-update-by-query.html). As a heads up, Elasticsearch v7.10 is no longer supported as per our [support matrix](https://www.elastic.co/support/eol). We would recommend upgrading. Hope that helps! --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/adjusting-timezone-in-fields-in-index-pattern/337995)._
