Abstract
A review of the existing knowledge on the Deccan Volcanic Province of India shows that it has a significant geographic bias towards the western parts, while the rest of the province is not as well constrained. Emerging data on its structure, geochronology and volcanology in the last decade suggests that many existing concepts and models of this large Continental Flood Basalt Province are open to revisions or replacement.
