In Bengal, the headquarters of East India Company were located at:

  • (A) Fort St. David
  • (B) Fort William
  • (C) Fort St. George
  • (D) Fort Radisson
  • In Bengal, it was located in a hub called Fort William in Calcutta (now known as Kolkata), established in 1696 along the Hooghly River. It was a hub for the Bengal Presidency and East India Company business in Bengal.
  • Fort St. George, on the other hand, is in Chennai (formerly known as Madras) in southern India and was a hub for the Madras Presidency, not Bengal. After the Battle of Plassey in 1757, Fort William continued to be a major hub in Bengal. Hence, even though both forts were important, only Fort William was a hub in Bengal, making (B) Fort William correct and not Fort St. George.
