Mauritius plans to observe DST from 2008-11-01 to 2009-03-31 on a trial
basis.
Some information about it from sources there:

Based on the articles like those above and contact with government
officials, we have written more about it here:
http://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/mauritius-daylight-saving-time.html
It seems that Mauritius observed daylight saving time from 1982-10-10 to
1983-03-20 as well, but that was not successful. Current zoneinfo or
Shanks/Pottenger do not contain any details about this 1982-83 change.
