Heyya!
The monsoons are experienced in the tropical area roughly between 20° N and 20° S. The mechanism of the monsoons can be understood from following facts ::
(a) The differential heating and cooling of land and water creates low pressure on the landmass of India while the seas around experience comparatively high pressure.
(b) The shift of the position of Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) in summer, over the Ganga plain (this is the equatorial trough normally positioned about 5°N of the equator – also known as the monsoon- trough during the monsoon season).
(c) The presence of the high-pressure area, east of Madagascar, approximately at 20°S over the Indian Ocean. The intensity and position of this high-pressure area affects the Indian Monsoon.
(d) The Tibetan plateau gets intensely heated during summer, which results in strong vertical air currents and the formation of high pressure over the plateau at about 9 km above sea llevel.
(e) The movement of the westerly jet stream to the north of the Himalayas and the presence of the tropical easterly jet stream over the Indian peninsula during summer.
Hope it helps!☺️

The North West trade winds from the Pacific ocean crosses the equator and due to the Coriolis Force blow as South East trade winds.
They enter India in the first week of June through the South Western tip i.e., Thiruvanantapuram and hence is known as South West Trade Winds.
Due to the peninsular shape of india the trade winds get divided into two branches one is Arabian sea branch and the other one is Bay of Bengal branch. The Arabian sea branch carries more moisture and provides rain to almost the whole country.
