Consider the following, 

$date = new DateTime(null, new DateTimeZone('Asia/Kolkata'));
$sysdate = date_format($date, 'H:i:s');
echo $sysdate;

Result:  17:31:48

Let me know how to minus 5 minutes from sysdate.

See this

PHP Function:

strtotime()

Example:

echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('-5 minutes'));

In objective style, you can use method sub and DateInterval object:

$date = new DateTime(null, new DateTimeZone('Asia/Kolkata'));

echo  $date->format('H:i:s').PHP_EOL;
$date->sub(new DateInterval('PT5M'));
echo  $date->format('H:i:s').PHP_EOL;

result:

17:44:04
17:39:04

Try this! hope this may help...

$date = new DateTime(null, new DateTimeZone('Asia/Kolkata'));

$sysdate = date_format(strtotime($date), 'H:i:s');

echo date('H:i:s',time($sysdate) - 05*60);

Not tested, but this might help..$date->sub(new DateInterval('PT0H5M'));
