What is the correct basis of India's hemispheric position?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Location in northern latitudes and eastern longitudes

The governing concept is the use of the Equator and Prime Meridian as the reference lines for hemispheres. India lies north of the Equator, so it is in the Northern Hemisphere, and it lies east of the Prime Meridian, so it is in the Eastern Hemisphere. Its approximate coordinate range confirms this interpretation: its latitudes are north and its longitudes are east. Therefore, option A correctly identifies the basis of India's hemispheric position. Option B reverses both directions, while C and D describe other geographic or demographic attributes that cannot establish hemispheric location.
