The correct answer is

Spring season

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) officially classifies the Indian year into four seasons based on temperature and rainfall patterns.

These four seasons are winter (January-February), summer or pre-monsoon (March-May), the monsoon or rainy season (June-September), and the post-monsoon or retreating monsoon season (October-December).

Spring is a season commonly associated with temperate countries and is not recognised as one of the four official meteorological seasons of India.

Hence, spring season is NOT included in the four official meteorological seasons of India.
