During the Mughal period, which one of the following were the first to come to India as traders ?

The Portuguese were the first Europeans to arrive in India during the Mughal period as traders, led by Vasco da Gama who reached Calicut in 1498. This predated and occurred during the early Mughal era (which began in 1526). The Portuguese established trading ports at Goa, Diu, and Daman. The Dutch arrived in the early 17th century (1605), the English (later British) East India Company in 1600s (first factory 1613), and the Danish arrived even later in the 1620s. Thus Portuguese were chronologically first among the options provided.
