Central Highlands in India can be defined as a bio-geographic zone. These highlands have been formed by the disjunct ranges of the Satpura and Vindhya Hills. The Malwa Plateau in the west, the Deccan Plateau in the south (covering majority of the Indian peninsula) and the Chota Nagpur Plateau in the east are the most important regions of the Indian subcontinent and the Central Highlands in India. 
The Thar Desert, also known as the Great Indian Desert, is a large, arid region in the northwestern part of the Indian subcontinent that forms a natural boundary between India and Pakistan. It is the world's 17th largest desert, and the world's 9th largest subtropical desert

The island groups of India can be divided into 2 parts according to their location. They are:

The islands of the Bay of Bengal and The islands of the Arabian Sea.
Among the islands located in the Bay of Bengal the most important group is the Andaman and Nicobar group of islands. These islands are mainly the upper parts of mountains rising from the floor of the Bay. This is the reason why at different parts of the islands small hills can be seen distributed irregularly
Off the Malabar coast of Kerala lay the islands of Amindivi, Lakshadweep and Minicoy. They lie in the Arabian Sea. These islands have been formed by deposits of millions of corals and so form coral islands. Thus the soil of these islands is also very fertile.HOPE IT HELPS YOU
