Plate-Tectonic Evolution of the Deep Ocean Basins Adjoining the Western Continental Margin of India—A Proposed Model for the Early Opening Scenario
The available plate-tectonic evolution models suggest that the deep ocean basins adjoining the western continental margin of India have evolved largely due to break-up and dispersal of India,…

The rapid drift of the Indian tectonic plate
TLDR
It is proposed that when the fragments of Gondwanaland were separated by the plume, the penetration of their lithospheric roots into the asthenosphere were important in determining their speed, thus permitting faster motion due to ridge push or slab pull.
