Salesforce store the time in UTC but when we use apex:outputfield in VF page, Salesforce convert the datetime to based on user locale so you don't need to do anything.

If you still have any other use case then I suggest use below code to convert

Use Date.format() method and pass the time Zone.It will convert utc to ist for you.

//Get current date time in GMT format Datetime dt = System.now(); //Convert it into Indian Standard Time(dtIST). String dtIST = dt.format('yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss', 'IST'); System.debug('dt-' + dt); System.debug('dtIST-' + dtIST);
