Well Western Eurasian admixture in both central asians and south asians may have been bit overestimated in many previous studies. I would say for now, it is somewhat safer to say that south indians are about 50 to 60% caucasoid and northwest indians are around 70 to 80% caucasoid(at least going by David Reich's studies).

On 23andme most indians(both south and north) score between 60-95% european, so they are atleast predominantly caucasoid.
Dont know about decodeme, but central/west euroasian caucasoid component is like 70-90% in north/west india, and like 50-70 in south india.
