The first temple-building activity in India began during the rule of which dynasty?
Gupta Dynasty
Structural temple architecture in India took definite shape during the Gupta period, often called the classical age of Indian art.
The Guptas built some of the earliest surviving free-standing stone temples, such as the Dashavatara temple at Deogarh.
This marked the beginning of organised temple-building, moving from rock-cut caves toward structural shrines.
The Ahom, Vijayanagara and Gurjara-Pratihara dynasties rose to prominence much later than this early phase.
Thus, the first temple-building activity began under the Gupta Dynasty.
