The equator also sits below India; the center graticule on your map intersects with India. Your map, instead of going from 85N to 85S, goes from 95N to 75S.

sorry about the confusion.
That's actually because I intentionally moved the landmasses northwards a bit, not because the equator is in a different position. Remember, this isn't a picture of actual-Earth, it's a picture of intentionally-not-Earth-but-somewhat-similar.
