The bodies could not be retrieved since the high altitude location is difficult to access.
The eight-member group of British, American, Australian and Indian mountaineers went missing after leaving Nanda Devi's base camp in Munsyari on May 13. They were scheduled to complete their expedition on June 1.
The identifies of the five could only be ascertained after the recovery of their bodies.
Earlier on Sunday, four British mountaineers were rescued from the Nanda Devi base camp. They were a part of a bigger group of 38 mountaineers, which included the missing eight.
