@Vijayt How are you querying this data ? Could be a difference in timezone?

@Vijayt I think the data that you are querying is already in UTC . The variation that you are seeing is because of the 1d resolution and time slot of the data sample stored by dynatarce.

Here is some explanation around that , hope this helps.
