Lists by state or region [ edit ]
Lists of mountains by state or region of India:
^ The table below only lists the 100 summits with at least 500 m (1,640 ft) prominence . A few spectacular peaks such as Abi Gamin (prominence of 217m) and Gimmigela Chuli (prominence of 432m) are therefore not included in the table.
^ Peakbagger is used as a reference for this column.
^ Hartemann & Hauptman 2005 , pp. 233–244 is used as a reference for most peaks. Peaks not in the citation are referenced separately.
