Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option B(इल्तुतमिश)
शम्सुद्दीन इल्तुतमिश दिल्ली का प्रथम सुल्तान था जिसने नियमित सिक्के (टंका एवं जीतल) जारी किए तथा दिल्ली को स्वतंत्र सल्तनत की राजधानी घोषित किया। उसने बगदाद के अब्बासी खलीफा अल-मुस्तंसिर बिल्लाह से 1229 ई. में सुल्तान पद की कानूनी स्वीकृति (खिल्लत/मंशूर) प्राप्त की।
Shamsuddin Iltutmish was the first Sultan of Delhi who issued regular coinage (standardized silver Tanka and copper Jital) and officially declared Delhi as the capital of his empire. In 1229 AD, he received the formal investiture (Khilat/Manshur) from the Abbasid Caliph of Baghdad, confirming his sovereign title as 'Sultan-i-Azam'.
