I have a string like 2020-09-30T06:30:00Z

when I try to convert it into Date object it defaults time to 12:00

var d = new Date('2020-09-30T06:30:00Z');
console.log(d);
console.log(d.toString());

I am not sure about the reason.

maybe you should give it also a timeZoneOffset – Aalexander Dec 15 '20 at 12:56
It assumes you gave the time in UTC and is converting it to your local timezone. – Keldan Chapman Dec 15 '20 at 12:57
