Ok thanks I ran the command with sudo
and here is the output from timedatectl status
Local time: Sat 2021-12-11 21:43:04 IST
Universal time: Sat 2021-12-11 16:13:04 UTC
RTC time: Sat 2021-12-11 21:43:04
Time zone: Asia/Kolkata (IST, +0530)
System clock synchronized: no
NTP service: active
RTC in local TZ: yes
Warning: The system is configured to read the RTC time in the local time zone.
This mode cannot be fully supported. It will create various problems
with time zone changes and daylight saving time adjustments. The RTC
time is never updated, it relies on external facilities to maintain it.
If at all possible, use RTC in UTC by calling
'timedatectl set-local-rtc 0'.
it worked!
