Introduction
Indian religions, sometimes

also termed as Dharmic faiths or
religions, are the religions that
originated in the Indian
subcontinent; namely Hinduism,
Jainism, Buddhism and Sikhism.
These religions are also all
classified as Eastern religions.
Although Indian religions are
connected through the history of
India, they constitute a wide
range of religious communities,
and are not confined to the Indian
subcontinent.
Major religious groups as a percentage of world population
Evidence attesting to prehistoric
religion in the Indian
subcontinent derives from scattered Mesolithic rock paintings. The Harappan people of the Indus Valley Civilisation,
which lasted from 3300 to 1300 BCE (mature period, 2600–1900 BCE), had an early urbanized culture which
predates the Vedic religion.
