    Hi,

    Please create WEBSITE_TIME_ZONE application setting with value of Asia/Kolkata as shown below. Please remove TZ setting to avoid confusion.

    azure app service set timezone linux

    After making the above changes, please verify time zone is correct using Web SSH (Development Tools -- SSH in portal) using date -R command, as shown below:

    azure app service timezone verify linux
