I've noticed a few posts recently about Cortana giving the wrong time when asked "What time is it".
Cortana for events/reminders uses the phone's time, however if you ask the question "What time is it", it actually fires off a query to Bing which gives back the response, either Beed, India or Iceland in most cases.
I've tried this same query in Bing on the desktop IE and get exactly the same time that Cortana gives, even when I'm logged in to Bing using my MS account which has the correct timezone information.
So, this error is a BING error not Cortana, think someone needs to poke MS to update their search queries!
Hope this helps people confused.
