Finally, I would like to point out that the so-called "BMAC influences" are often exaggerated. We have no "BMAC" genetic influx in India after 1500 BC, and the IVC themselves, probably related to the Shahr-i-Sokhta samples, are not synonymous with BMAC, as some Indians claim. What links them is a more general Iranian ancestry. Returning, the most common "BMAC influences" are the fire cult or the drink soma. I could explain better, but for now, the drink is not attested among the BMAC, and the word itself has an IE etymology. The literature argues that the BMAC influences for the Indo-Aryans were not as significant as for the Iranians. And the fire cult is an ancient practice in IE traditions, and it makes no sense to limit something as banal as people X, Y, or Z.
So so answer your question; yes. The aryan invasion happened *or* (if we shouldn't make people seeth) migration
