It forms the traditional boundary between North India and South India and flows westwards over a length of 1312 km before draining through the Gulf of Khambhat into the Arabian Sea, 30 km west of Bharuch city of Gujarat.

Bharuch, formerly known as Broach, is a city at the mouth of the river Narmada in Gujarat in western India.

Narmada flows through the rift valley between Satpura and Vindhya ranges.

Today, the term principally refers to the escarpment that runs north of and roughly parallel to the Narmada River in Madhya Pradesh, and its hilly extensions.

It flows through the states of Madhya Pradesh (1077 km), and Maharashtra, (74 km),(39 km) (actually along the border between Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra (39 km) and then the border between Maharastra and Gujarat (74 km) and in Gujarat (161 km).

Isolated remains of Homo erectus found in Hathnora in the Narmada Valley indicate that Madhya Pradesh might have been inhabited in the Middle Pleistocene era.

The Tapti River and Mahi River also flow through rift valleys, but between different ranges.

The Tapti River (or Tapi) is a river in central India between the Godavari and Narmada rivers.

Between Ramnagar and Mandla, (25 km), further southeast, the course is comparatively straight with deep water devoid of rocky obstacles.

The town is situated in a loop of the Narmada River, which surrounds it on three sides, and for 15 miles between Mandla and Ramnagar, Madhya Pradesh the river flows in a deep bed unbroken by rocks.

Close to this city, after a fall of some (9 m), called the Dhuandhara, the fall of mist, it flows for (3 km), in a deep narrow channel through the magnesium limestone and basalt rocks called the Marble Rocks; from a width of about 90 m, above, it is compressed in this channel of (18 m), only.

The Marble Rocks is an area along the Narmada river in central India near the city of Jabalpur; in Bhedaghat of Jabalpur District, in the state of Madhya Pradesh.

The Narmada River originates from north-eastern end of Satpura in Amarkantak, and runs in the depression between the Satpura and Vindhya ranges, draining the northern slope of the Satpura range, running west towards the Arabian Sea.

The river then runs north–west in a narrow loop towards Jabalpur.
