Gajapati Empire (peak)
Prince Hamvira's southern campaign (c. 1463–64) carried Gajapati arms down the Coromandel coast through Udayagiri and Kanchi to the Kaveri; Wikipedia gives the peak as reaching Tiruchirappalli.
This was a short military occupation of the coastal belt, lost again by the 1470s.

South Asia's regional kingdoms, 1000–1550
Between the Ghaznavid raids and the Mughal conquest, South Asia was shared by dozens of regional states: the Madurai Sultanate in the Tamil country, the sultanates of Gujarat, Malwa and Khandesh, the Reddi and Velama kingdoms of Andhra, the Gajapatis of Odisha, the Rajput kingdoms of Mewar and Marwar, the Ahom, Chutia, Kamata and Tripura kingdoms of the north-east, the successors of the Chera Perumals on the Malabar coast, and the Sinhala kingdoms of Gampola, Kotte and Kandy. Few medieval sources describe frontiers.
