The youngest oceanic crust in the Indian ocean is located at the Central Indian Ridge, which is a mid-ocean ridge that runs roughly north-south between Madagascar and India. This area is characterized by active seafloor spreading, where new crust is formed as magma rises to the surface. The youngest crust typically lies closest to the ridge axis and becomes progressively older as you move away from it.
