Datetime dtNow = DateTime.now();

 

This gives you the current Date / Time in the Org.

DateTIme.now() gives the timestamp in GMT.

I want the timestamp of the ORG i.e. the time stamp according to the time zone present under Company Information.

 

To get the Company Information  -

Set Up -> Administartion Set up -> Company Profile -> Company Information -> Default Time Zone

The time in Salesforce is always in GMT (UTC). That's how it is stored in the CreatedDate, etc fields in the database.

It is corrected to the User's timezone when it is displayed.

 

To get it in the local time zone of the executing user :

System.debug(Datetime.now().format());
