time/date functions in php using timezones determine local time. if server in timezone gmt+6 means date() function return date/time 6 hours before gmt.

you can check date_default_timezone_set() function manual find out how php selecting timezone.

to set timezone, can use date_default_timezone_set() before calling date function or can set php.ini setting date.timezone timezone.

for second part of question - when formatting time using date() function h format character return 24-hour format of hour leading zeros.
