There's very easy way to do it. Simply get the current UTC time and your timezone in two different variables. Then convert UTC to your timezone in third variable and use it anywhere. Here's how you do it.

DateTime date1 = DateTime.UtcNow;

TimeZoneInfo tz = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("Pakistan Standard Time");

DateTime date2 = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTime(date1, tz);

Set your Time Zone in tz and then use "date2" anywhere.
