Answer:

India lies to the north of the equator between 6° 44′ and 35° 30′ north latitude and 68° 7′ and 97° 25′ east longitude.

Explanation:

India is located in the northern hemisphere of the world.

The Tropic of Cancer (23°30’N) passes almost halfway through the country India. It is North from the Equator, that passes through the middle of India. The Tropic of Cancer passes through eight states in India

From the extends south to north, the mainland of India extends between 8°4’N and 37°6’N latitudes.

From the other extends west to east, India extends between 68°7’E and 97°25’E longitudes.

Due to the great longitudinal extent and difference of about 29°, there are wide differences in local time of places located at two extreme points of the country.

The difference between these two points would be approximate of about two hours.
