Question

Ajit Balakrishnan built which among the earliest Indian Web Portals?

The correct answer is

Rediff.com

Ajit Balakrishnan, an advertising professional and co-founder of Rediffusion, launched Rediff.com in 1996 as one of India's earliest general-purpose web portals. It offered news, email, shopping, matchmaking and community services and later listed on the NASDAQ in 2000.

Indiaworld.com was built by Rajesh Jain (Sify acquired it in 1999), Indiatimes.com is owned by the Times Internet group, and Homeindia.com is a smaller diaspora site - none of these were built by Ajit Balakrishnan.

Hence, the correct answer is Rediff.com.
