Australia took India's last four wickets on Saturday morning to crush the tourists by 298 runs in the fourth test and record a 4-0 series sweep.
India had resumed on 166 for six in their second innings chasing an improbable 500 runs for victory but their tail-end batsman lasted just 58 minutes on a hot and sunny fifth morning of the match.
Australian paceman Peter Siddle, who took 5-49 in India's first innings, was named Man-of-the-Match, while the Man-of-the-Series was his captain Michael Clarke, who hit triple and double centuries in the series.
