The long-duration, fast convergence, and imbalance of crustal mass in the India-Asia collisional system challenge the classical rules of continental dynamics. Here, we calculate the mass deficit of felsic crust in Greater India indicating ~20–47% of the felsic crust is missing during collision. Phase equilibria modeling and density calculations dem...
