Does daylight saving change NPT to MSK?

Moscow Time does not move its clocks at all, so its UTC+3 offset holds every day of the year.
Is NPT ahead of or behind MSK?
NPT is ahead of MSK by 2 hours 45 minutes: when it is 12:00 pm in Nepal, it is 9:15 am in Moscow. Neither Nepal Time nor Moscow Time observes daylight saving, so the abbreviations never change and the gap between them is fixed.
Nepal Time covers the only national zone on a 45 minute offset. Moscow Time covers Moscow and western Russia, fixed since 2014. The identifiers behind them are Asia/Kathmandu and Europe/Moscow, which is what any calendar or scheduling system should be storing rather than a fixed number of hours.
