List of extreme points of India - wikipedia List of extreme points of India Map all coordinates using OSM Map all coordinates using Google Export all coordinates as KML Export all coordinates as GPX Map all microformatted coordinates Place data as RDF Extreme points of India marked on the map of India The extreme points of India include the coordinates that are further north, south, east or west than any other location in India ; and the highest and the lowest altitudes in the country. The northern-most and eastern-most points claimed by India are both in territory disputed between India and China. With the exception of Kanyakumari ( Cape Comorin ), the southern-most location of mainland India, all other extreme locations are uninhabited. The latitude and longitude are expressed in decimal degree notation, in which a positive latitude value refers to the northern hemisphere, and a negative value refers to the southern hemisphere. Similarly, a positive longitude value refers to the eastern hemisphere, and a negative value refers to the western hemisphere. The coordinates used in this article are sourced from Google Earth, which makes use of the WGS84 geodetic reference system. Additionally, a negative altitude value refers to land below sea level.

The northernmost point administered by India lies in Jammu & Kashmir. India 's claim to the whole of Kashmir is disputed by Pakistan and China, with the territory currently partitioned into Pakistan 's state of Gilgit - Baltistan, the Chinese region of Aksai Chin and the Indian - administered state of Jammu and Kashmir. This list provides the northernmost point as claimed by India ; the northern-most disputed point that is administered by India ; and the northern-most undisputed point in India. This case also applies to the highest elevated regions. India 's eastern-most state is Arunachal Pradesh. Part of the state is claimed by China as `` South Tibet '', though administered by India, The easternmost of Indian - administered territory is located in this disputed region.
