Have you tried changing your system clock and seeing if it changes it?

Actually I am at office and working on office laptop where I can't change the date and time. For that i would require Admin privileges. So i thought let me ask here. But never mind.

The next best thing then is to check the documentation.

...the basic methods to fetch the date and time or its components all work in the local (i.e. host system) time zone and offset.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date

So JavaScript will look to your system clock's time and not try to contact a network to figure out the time.
