India's territorial limit further extends towards the sea upto 12 nautical miles (about 21.9 km) from the coast.
The territorial jurisdiction extends to territorial water up to 12 nautical miles from the nearest point of the baseline; beyond territorial waters is the Contiguous Zone extending up to 24 nautical miles; and beyond that up to 200 nautical miles is the Exclusive Economic Zone of India.
Maritime borders of India India, with its claim of a 12-nautical-mile (22 km; 14 mi) territorial maritime zone and 200-nautical-mile (370 km; 230 mi) exclusive economic zone, has a more than 7,000-kilometre (4,300 mi) maritime border shared with seven nations.
Whereas India's maritime boundaries necessitate delimitation with seven states on adjacent and opposite coasts—Pakistan, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Thailand, Myanmar, and desh—its land borders are shared with six states (Pakistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan, desh, and Myanmar).
The mainland of India extends from Kashmir in the north to Kanyakumari in the south and Gujarat in the west and Arunachal Pradesh in the east. India's maritime boundary is 12 nautical miles (21.9 km). India has 200 nautical miles of economic zone and more than 7000 km of the maritime border shared with seven nations.
India is a country that shares its borders with nine different countries, covering a total area of about 15200 km. The borders are not only limited to land but are also present in the water bodies. India shares its borders with seven countries via land and seven countries via water as well.
Each coastal State may claim a territorial sea that extends seaward up to 12 nautical miles (nm) from its baselines. The coastal State exercises sovereignty over its territorial sea, the airspace above it, and the seabed and subsoil beneath it.
The exclusive economic zone (EEZ) of a nation extends upto nautical miles from its coastline. The oceanic resources upto 12 nautical miles from a nation's coastline are considered to be international resources.
The formation of sharp borders, across which cell intermingling is restricted, has a crucial role in the establishment and maintenance of organized tissues. Signaling of Eph receptors and ephrins underlies formation of a number of boundaries between and within tissues during vertebrate development.
The maritime boundaries and areas are calculated from the baselines. In the Maritime Boundaries dataset, the baselines used were a combination of a coastline as a proxy for the low-water line (the normal baseline described in UNCLOS) and straight or archipelagic baselines.
