NSDate *date = [NSDate Date];
NSTimeZone *currentTimeZon = [NSTimeZone localTimeZone];
if ([currentTimeZon isDaylightSavingTime]) 
{
    NSLog(@"East coast is NOT on DT");
} 
else 
{
    NSLog(@"East coast is on DT");  

}
NSTimeInterval timeZoneOffset = [currentTimeZon secondsFromGMTForDate:currentDate];
NSTimeInterval gmtTimeInterval = [date timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate] - timeZoneOffset;
NSDate *gmtDate = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceReferenceDate:gmtTimeInterval];
NSLog(@"### Announcement gmtDate = %@",gmtDate);

Use NSCalendar, it understands time zones, daylight savings, etc. As @albertamg says, NSDate is just the time since a reference at UTC (GMT), it has no other concept.
