Is the Nord Indid race a pure Caucasoid sub-race?

[Roy]

Yes, they are. Some of them are getting Southern European guesses sometimes (but mainly from these with untrained eye but still).

[MagnusAurelius]

This is not a good analysis at all. The biggest non Caucasian component of Indian genetic make up is not represented, unless they incorporated that into the SouthAsian component but it still isn't good.

The largest non-Caucasian component with Indian admixture comes from Australoid people who are indigenous to India, though they don't exist in their purest form anymore, they mixed with Mongoloids long ago which is why the Indigeionus people of India look like a mix of Australoids and Mongoloids, most of them.

All non-Dalit South Asian ethnic groups except for Pathans and some Punjabis are 65-75% Caucasian genetically. Most are in the range of 70-75% and Pathans are 75-80% while some Punajbi ethnic tribal groups are 80-85%. The rest of their ancestry is mostly Australoid with a smaller Mongoloid component.

for practical purposes they are caucasian though. indid is caucasian sub-race.

Well people who may be Caucasian by phenotype may still have significant admixture from another race. I will have to make a thread on the race of Indians.

So? Caucasoid only refers to a physical type, there's no such thing as Caucasian DNA.

I think they are caucasian.

No, they are mixed and have become their own race.

I used to think that they were pure Caucasoid, until I found that genetic studies state that they have minor Mongoloid and Melanesid.

As said by people DNA here doesn't mean much. Look at the "ancestral Indian" or "South Asian" components native to people in South Asia. It is primarily composed of ancestral North India (ANI) and ancestral South Indian (ASI). 90% of people of South Asia are either a combination of the two or one dominates the other. ANI is a western Eurasian component while ASI is a Eastern Eurasian component, still the people comprising of the two genetic components look similar to each other than to their Near-eastern/European compatriots (as for ANI) or South-east Asian/East Asian compatriots (as for ASI).

Genetic =/= arbitral phenotype.
