Answer:
The southwest monsoon brings rains towards the end of summer as the high pressure built in the Indian Ocean pushes the wind masses towards the low pressure formed on land.

It has generally been held that the south-west monsoon owes its origin to the great difference of temperature which exists during the summer months between the heated land surface of India and the surrounding oceans, the general idea being that the warm air over the land rises, and damp air from the sea flows into India to take its place, thus resulting in the strong south-west winds, the rainfall itself being due to the cooling of the air as it rises over India.
