    utc_offset = (time.altzone if is_dst else time.timezone)
#Checking for negative and positve offset values
    if(utc_offset > 0):
        utc_offset_hours = (utc_offset / 3600)
        sign = '- '
    else:
        utc_offset_hours = (-(utc_offset) / 3600)
        sign = '+ '
    utc_offset_minutes =  (utc_offset % 3600) / 60
#Converting Integer values to string before concatenating
    utc_offset = sign + str(utc_offset_hours) + '.' +str(utc_offset_minutes)
    print utc_offset
