Add offset to UTC date in Javascript

Question

I have UTC date and want to add offset say 330 minutes to it.

var now = new Date(); 
var now_utc = new Date(now.getUTCFullYear(), now.getUTCMonth(), now.getUTCDate(),  now.getUTCHours(), now.getUTCMinutes(), now.getUTCSeconds());
var offset = 330;

var new_date = ????

I disagree, it's the same date plus 330 - for example, I get now_utc = 2016-08-02T20:36:35.000Z and new_date=2016-08-02T20:36:35.330Z ... see how they differ by exactly 330 — Jaromanda X

@JaromandaX I tried it in console... Here is what I got... new Date(now_utc) Wed Aug 03 2016 06:40:14 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time) new Date((now_utc * 1) + 330) Wed Aug 03 2016 06:40:14 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time) — Abhijit Borade

You wanted to add 330. Only now do you imply you meant minutes. I don't read minds — Jaromanda X

new_date = new Date((now_utc * 1) + (330*60*1000))
