That was perhaps not the most lucky comment you have made in your life - the
time zone was actually Asia/Dubai, the time does not exist because of GMT
offset advancing not spring DST clock advancing (Dubai never had Daylight
Saving or Summer Time), and then there was a typo "teh" :)

The date-time you are trying to create does not exist for the time zone 
Asia/Delhi because of teh spring DST cutover.
