The First Anglo-Maratha War ended in 1782 with which of the following treaties ?
Treaty of Salbai
The First Anglo-Maratha War began over British support to Raghunathrao's claim to the Peshwaship and dragged on without a decisive British victory. After the reverse at Wadgaon and Mahadji Scindia's mediation, the two sides settled in 1782 by the Treaty of Salbai.
The treaty restored the territories taken since 1775 except Salsette, recognised Madhavrao II as Peshwa, and secured roughly two decades of peace between the Company and the Marathas, which the British used to concentrate against Mysore.
The other treaties belong to different conflicts. The Treaty of Bassein of 1802 was the subsidiary alliance that triggered the Second Anglo-Maratha War, the Treaty of Seringapatam of 1792 ended the Third Anglo-Mysore War against Tipu Sultan, and the Treaty of Purandar of 1776 was an earlier settlement negotiated by the Calcutta Council but never given effect.
Hence, the answer is the Treaty of Salbai.
