Abstract

Bhowmik suggested two stages of orogenesis at the southern margin of the Central Indian Tectonic Zone (CITZ): (a) an accretionary orogenesis type at ca. 1.6–1.5 Ga that formed a proto‐Greater Indian Landmass (GIL) through the assembly of arc, back‐arc and continental margins, (b) a Himalayan‐style continental collision event between 1.06 and 0.93 Ga that finally stitched the North and South India blocks to produce the final configuration of the GIL and (c) an intervening phase of extension between 1.5 and 1.06 Ga that led to the opening up of the Sausar Basin and deposition of the Sausar Group of rocks.
