Thomas Mcevilley's Shape of Ancient Thought has a section or two on comparing Neoplatonism with Indian philosophy. But, as an anon already pointed out, be aware that Neoplatonism isn't a monolithic thing. There are different Neoplatonist thinkers. Christians in this thread are trying to convince people that "Christianity is literally Neoplatonism", but obviously they mean one specific variety of Neoplatonism, either Augustine or Pseudo-Dionysius or whatever, i.e. Christain Neoplatonists of whom there isn't even one version, but different theories among them. So you may be able to draw some parallels between Neoplatonism and Vedanta in a very stale and generic way, but ask yourself WHICH Neoplatonism am I comparing it to? Plotinus? Whose particular interpretation of Plotinus? What about the Neoplatonism of Proclus? Porphyry? Iamblichus?
