The first answer is correct. It is a continent-continent convergent plate boundary. The Indian-Australian plate is subducting under the Eurasian plate to the north. This process is what created the Himalayas.

Convergent. The plates are moving toward each other and the Indo-Austrailian Plate is being subducted under the Asian Plate.
