@vishalofficial96 you can implement _FSCalendarDelegate_ and use

- (void)calendar:(FSCalendar *)calendar didSelectDate:(NSDate *)date atMonthPosition:(FSCalendarMonthPosition)monthPosition

I am using this library, but this method returns the previous day to me rather than actual selected date. For ex: I am selecting 25th April on calendar view, but in this method I receive 24th April. Any possible solutions?

@priya1588 you have to convert time From IST to UTC

[vishalofficial96]

@priya1588 Show this simple code

cell.lblStartTime.text = Utilities.getFormatedTimeInStringGMT(dateTime: Utilities.localDateFromUTC(timestamp: 1523339900))

Hi @priya1588.
Unfortunately, @vishalofficial96 answer is not fully correct.

NSDate only represents an absolute point in time. It has no concept of timezone.

The date parameter from calendar didSelectDate is a 00:00 of a specific date. When you _po_ the object or compare it with the other _NSDate_ (current time, for example) some conversion of _NSDate_ into _String_ or _Int_ have to be made, so, by default, system assume that it is UTC timestamp and represent it as a local time (that is where you have an issue, unless you live in GMT).

So to properly compare two NSDate you might need to use _NSDateComponents_.
For example:

 - (NSComparisonResult)compareDatesWith:(NSDate*)otherDate {
     NSCalendar* calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];

     unsigned unitFlags = NSCalendarUnitYear | NSCalendarUnitMonth |  NSCalendarUnitDay;
     NSDateComponents* comp1 = [calendar components:unitFlags fromDate:self];
     NSDateComponents* comp2 = [calendar components:unitFlags fromDate:otherDate];
     NSInteger comparison = [comp1 year] * 10000 + [comp1 month] * 100 + [comp1 day] -
             ([comp2 year] * 10000 + [comp2 month] * 100 + [comp2 day]);

     return comparison > 0 ? NSOrderedDescending : comparison < 0 ? NSOrderedAscending :      NSOrderedSame;
 }
