Yes! Amchoor powder (dried young and green mango) is used in northern indian dishes to give it the umami flavour. Tamarind is usually used in the south.
Usually used along with or in place of tomatoes, so you’ll get a less fruity flavour. If you can get some to try out in your Indian recipes, I highly recommend!
No problem, both these ingredients are really underrepresented in Euro-Indian recipes, but are pretty essential in India itself! I only learned about them from my best friend’s grandmother.

Thanks! I’ll definitely get some the next time I get to the store.
