Geographical reasons: The period October to December is referred to as Northeast Monsoon season over India. Earlier this period was also referred to as the Post-Monsoon Season or Retreating southwest Monsoon Season.
Northeast Monsoon season is the major period of rainfall activity over south peninsula, particularly in the eastern half comprising of the meteorological subdivisions of Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Rayalaseema and Tamilnadu-Pondicherry.
During summer, huge land masses get heated up generating a low pressure area over North west India. Therefore, a high pressure area sits over South Indian ocean between Madagascar and Australia. This high pressure area pushes winds towards African coast. These wind gusts gets deflected near Somalian coast and moves towards India. These wind gusts while traveling over the vast expanse of ocean pulls in moisture and it eventually hits India.
Likewise, wind gusts blow from Andaman sea towards North east India. Both the wind gusts from Arabian sea and Bay of Bengal gets blocked by Himalayas and are directed towards the low pressure area over North west India. This causes rainfall over the hilly regions of North east India and plains of North India.
