“…However, tracking the sediments from TTG, SGP, and DB from peninsular India is important (a) to unravel the geological history of Peninsular India and the Deccan Province, and (b) to understand the paleoclimate and paleomonsoon in the sub‐continental region. In the literature, there are limited studies focused on tracking the sediment provenance from the felsic lithologies of Peninsular India to marginal sedimentary basins (Acharya & Chakrabarti, 2019; Kessarkar et al., 2003; Kurian et al., 2013; Nair et al., 1982; V. P. Rao & Rao, 1995) and most of the available studies successfully decipher the sediment provenance between the Himalayas and the DB (Alam et al., 2023; Clift et al., 2019; Khim et al., 2020). In the Arabian Sea, most of the geochemical and mineralogical studies consider the sediment contribution from the TTG and SGP as minor and often attribute mafic sediment components as input from the Deccan Province.…”
