Solution
The correct option is D Tranquebar The Danish East India Company established their first factory at Tranquebar in Tamilnadu in 1620 and Serampur in Bengal in 1676. They were not successful in establishing themselves strongly and therefore in the 19th century sold all their settlements to the British and went back to their country.
