Yes. It is a convergent boundary where both masses consist of continental crust.

What Type of plate boundary exists between Indian and Asia?
A Collision plate boundary, where two continental plates that are the same in density and thickness, push against each other forming fold mountains and crumble zones. This causes Earthquakes from the pressure and stress but not volcanoes.
What type of boundary causes mountains?
Mountain-building is a result of continental collision, so destructive plate boundaries. One plate is destroyed by subduction below the other, which undergoes compression, buckling and uplift as the collision continues. This is happening at present in Asia, raising the Himalayan Mountains.
What type continental boundary caused the Himalayas to be formed?
A convergent or constructive continental boundary formed the Himalayas.
What type of plate boundary is causing the formation of the fold mountains of the Himalayas?
Convergent Boundary.
What type of boundary is illustrated in Figure 9-1?
convergent oceanic-continental boundary

What type of boundary formed the rocky mountains?
continental continental convergent boundary
What geologic features are associated with each type of convergent boundary?
Subduction zones, trenches and volcanic islands: the boundary that is oceanic. Trenches and volcanic islands: an oceanic-continental boundary. Folded mountain ranges: a continental and continental collision.
The Himalayas in South Asia are an example of what type of plate boundary?
convergent continental-continental boundary
What type of plate boundaries is shown in the diagram?

What type continental boundary caused the Himalayas to be formed?
A convergent or constructive continental boundary formed the Himalayas.

Convergent Boundary.
