Indian history

Bharatiya chronicle study

The history of the Indian subcontinent, spanning ancient Indus Valley civilizations through Mughal empires to British colonial rule and independence in 1947.

The phrase sometimes requires clarification in American contexts, where Indian history might refer to Native American history: Are you studying Indian history—India or American Indian?
