Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option D (Gupta)

भागवत अथवा वैष्णव धर्म का चरमोत्कर्ष गुप्त राजाओं के शासनकाल में हुआ। गुप्त नरेश वैष्णव मतानुयायी थे तथा उन्होंने इसे अपना राजधर्म बनाया था। अधिकांश गुप्त शासक 'परमभागवत' की उपाधि धारण करते थे। विष्णु का वाहन 'गरुड़' गुप्तों का राजचिह्न था।

The Bhagavata or Vaishnava religion reached its peak in the reign of Gupta kings. Gupta kings were followers of the Vaishnava religion, and they made it a religion of the state. Most of the Gupta rulers held the title of ‘Parambhagavata.’ Garuda, the mount (Vahana) of Lord Vishnu was the state symbol of Guptas.
