Observed surface wave forms across the central part of the Indian Peninsula and across northwestern part of the Peninsula have been considered. In a previous work, using group velocity of surface waves across former religion revealed model lithosphere IP 11. Observed surface wave forms across these two regions have been compared with synthetic seismograms using model IP 11. Observed wave forms are found to agree with synthetic one. This suggests that the average lithospheric structure of central and northwestern parts of the Indian Peninsula is similar and the Lithospheric model IP 11 is an approximation to it
