Solution

East Coast of India

Explanation:

The East Coast of India, particularly the coastal regions of Tamil Nadu and parts of Andhra Pradesh, receive significant rainfall from the retreating monsoon (also known as the Northeast monsoon) during the months of October to December. The retreating monsoon winds pick up moisture from the Bay of Bengal and bring rainfall to these areas.
