......... granted charter to East India Company to establish trading posts in India in 1600.
Queen Elizabeth I
The English East India Company was granted its royal charter on 31 December 1600 to carry on trade with the East Indies.
The charter was issued by Queen Elizabeth I of England, giving the company a 15-year monopoly on English trade with Asia.
Queen Elizabeth II reigned from 1952, while George V and George VI ruled in the 20th century, so none of them could have signed the 1600 charter.
Hence, Queen Elizabeth I.
