Billard R., 1995. Les carpes, biologie et élevage. INRA (Publ.),
Paris, France : 387 p. gives the major Indian carps :
Common Name Latin Name Feeding regime
Catla Catla catla zooplankton
Rohu Labeo rohita detritus, vegetation
Mrigal Cirrhinus mrigala detritus, vegetation
For the Gulfam, I really don't know. Maybe the last major Indian carp :
Calbassu Labeo calbassu detritus
