1) LATITUDE - Due to the curvature of the Earth, the amount of solar energy received is different according to the latitudes.
2) ALTITUDE - As we go higher, temperature generally decreases (From equator to poles) as the atmosphere becomes less dense.
3) PRESSURE AND WIND SYSTEM - They depend on the latitude and altitude of a place, thus influencing the rainfall patterns.
4) DISTANCE FROM SEA - The sea has a moderating effect on the climate. As distance from sea increases, this effect decreases and places experience extreme weather conditions (continentality).
5) OCEAN CURRENTS - They affect the climate of the coastal areas with the onshore winds.
6) RELIEF - High mountains act as barriers for cold/hot winds, may also cause precipitation if they are high enough and lie in the path of rain bearing winds. The leeward side of the mountains remains dry.
There are basically 6 factors affecting India's climate.

1 Temperature decreases wid increase in latitude on either side of the equator due to spherical shape of earth nd its annual revolution around the sun
2 Due to curvature of the earth ,the amount of solar energy received is different in india according to the latitudes
