title: how to store date and timezone in Indian Standard Time(IST) format in node.js?
body: <p>I have installed moment-timezone node-module and getting the date correctly but when I try to save it to database it is converting back into some another time-zone.</p>
  <pre><code>const moment = require('moment-timezone');
  const dateIndia = moment.tz(Date.now(), &quot;Asia/Kolkata&quot;);
  console.log(dateIndia);
  </code></pre>
  <p>Here console is printing the correct IST time:</p>
  <pre><code>Moment&lt;2022-06-04T15:08:08+05:30&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>Then I am storing it into the database from schema:</p>
  <pre><code>bookingDate: {
      type: Date, 
      default: dateIndia,
      required: true,
    },
  </code></pre>
  <p>But it is saving date into UTC timezone like this:</p>
  <pre><code>2022-06-04T09:18:38.540+00:00
  </code></pre>
