Developers are busy putting the finishing touches on their apps to take advantage of the new MacOS Big Sur features, support the new Macs next week with Apple’s own M1 chip, and add to the updated MacOS design. Many users will try to upgrade their Macs as soon as Big Sur becomes available.
While Apple did not provide an exact time for the release of macOS Big Sur, we can make some educated guesses based on Apple’s localized websites for different countries and previous releases.
While Apple lists the release date as November 12th in much of the world, localized websites for some Eastern Hemisphere countries list the launch date as November 13th, as the launch time in those countries is after midnight.
Specifically, Apple lists a November 12th release date on its Indian website while its November 13th release date is listed on its Thai website.
Given that these two countries are 90 minutes apart by time zones, this is relatively close, which suggests a window between 9:00 am and 10:30 am Pacific time. The most likely publish time on this window is 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, a common publish time for Apple. A release at this time would correspond to 11:30 p.m. on November 12 in India and 1:00 a.m. on November 13 in Thailand. Same method
when iOS 14 was released.Based on different dates listed on Apple's website in different countries, it seems the #iOS14 release window is between 11:30am-1:00pm Pacific / 2:30pm-4:00pm Eastern

It’s worth noting, however, that major macOS versions have typically gotten closer to 11:00 a.m. Pacific time in recent years. So it’s entirely possible that this could be a little later than our 10:00 AM forecast
