For example:
Consider that I have travelled to UK from INDIA ( UK is 5:30 hrs behind Indian time -IST).
When I am travelling back from UK, due to day light saving UK clock is now 4:40 hrs behind IST.
So did I loose 1 hour in my life as time zones are not compensated due to day light saving>

In your accounting, perhaps you forgot that next Sunday (the 25th) you'll turn your watch ahead one hour for Daylight Saving Time while you're in England.
You gained five and 1/2 hours traveling to England. You lose one of them by turning your watch ahead in England. The other 4 1/2 are lost when you reset your watch to India Standard Time on your return. No net change.
Of course, as other writers have pointed out so preciently, your life does not change at all. There is only a temporary aberration in the way you measure time.

A lot of world's time can you loose traveling the time-zone, but none of your life time. Because your life-time is measured within yourself, not according to the wall-clock, wherever it is.
Ever heard about biological clock? Yeah, that's it!

You are not older or younger traveling in time zones, only the reference in which you measure time has changed.
