D. East India Company establishes trading in India.

The East India Company, a British trading corporation, began establishing trading posts in India in the early 17th century, much before the other events listed. Specifically, the company was chartered by Queen Elizabeth I on December 31, 1600, and it established its first factory in Surat in 1612. This precedes the other events by several centuries.
