Vannay et al.
explains that the missing strata in Lesser Himalaya could be a result of glaciation in late Carboniferous.
Similar to the passive margin model, this model also implies that all the zones within the North Indian sequence share the same source; however, the εNd value and detrital zircon ages are currently controversial and may not favor this interpretation.
