Yes that is exactly what I mean. The ones you mention seem pretty solid

Do you mean for drawing chances? The Slav, Queen's Gambit Declined and Queen's Gambit Accepted all have draw statistics in the region of ~55% for masters at chess365, the Indians are more attacking lines (although can be quite safe). 

They don't reach the 64.8% draws of the Petroff (not without a bit of help from White) though.

In a topic I recently started "Why do you allow the Ruy?" It was clear that most people find Caro Kann, Petroff and Berlin defense as the reason GM avoid playing 1.e4. I wonder if are there defenses against 1.d4 that can be compare to them?
