Here we report a wide spectrum of fluid chemistry during multiple events of fluid-rock interaction throughout the evolutionary history (~950 Ma to ~500 Ma) of lower crustal segment of the Eastern Ghats Belt. This study reveals entrapment of very high-density CO2 fluid at the near-peak UHT metamorphic condition followed by at least two events of infiltration of carbonic fluids (mixed with vapor) at different crustal levels during reworking and eventual exhumation of this crustal segment up to the shallow depth. There is a possible resetting effect of fluids on the monazite and zircon dating.
