Hi Arpit,
If you want to know at Appian level then by default it takes GMT or as per the internationalization setting of your environment.
If you you are looking for specific time zone transaction(as you described in question), please do at DB level. At Appian level directly, it is not supported. Thanks

If you let DB to handle that, yes you can. For example: instead of using now() in Appian to save the current time stamp, in the DB, the field must accept NULL and you can make a trigger to write whatever you want.
