The total area of the Indian land mass is 3.28 million square kilometres i.e. nearly 2.4% of the total land area of the world. India is the seventh largest country in the world.
India spreads across both the Eastern and the Northern Hemispheres. India’s latitudinal stretch is between 8.4 degrees N and 37.6 degrees N, and the longitudinal stretch is between 68.7 degrees E and 97.25 degrees E.
The Tropic of Cancer at 23.30 degrees North latitude cuts across the country, dividing it almost into two equal halves. The country has the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the south-east and the Lakshadweep Islands in the southwest.
