This may be the problem because Linux may be expecting the BIOS RTC to be UTC and will apply an offset depending on what you set the timezone to be.
We need to see the output of the command and know what the BIOS clock is set to and your local time to be sure.

Hope, the above file may assist you to understand my problem.
stevef:
If you can access the BIOS on your machine, next time you boot up, go to BIOS settings and note what time the hardware clock is set to. Then let the machine boot up normally. Open a terminal (by pressing Ctrl Alt and T together) and run this command.
--- Code: ---timedatectl
--- End code ---
Post back with the actual time (at your location), what the BIOS time is set at and the output of the command shown above.

But on restart my time zone Asia/Karachi is not matching with system. I will appreciate if someone can resolve this or guide me how to correct this problem.
Thanks with in anticipation,
