The Indian apparent polar wandering path (APW) for the late Mesozoic-Cenozoic period has been too poorly defined to use as a constraint to establish the timing of collision of India and Asia. Here we update the Indian APW on the basis of new palaeomagnetic data from DSDP cores and from Baluchistan (Pakistan). This new synthesis details the late Mesozoic and Cenozoic northward motion of India, and supports geological evidence for an initial collision with Asia during the late Palaeocene-early Eocene.
