The first Sultan of Delhi to issue regular currency and declare Delhi as the capital of his empire was Iltutmish. He became the Sultan of Delhi in 1211 AD after the death of Qutbuddin Aibak, who was the founder of the Delhi Sultanate. Iltutmish is known for his administrative and military skills, bringing stability and expansion to the empire. He introduced a standardized currency system, which played a crucial role in facilitating trade and commerce. Iltutmish also made Delhi the capital of his empire, solidifying its status as an important political and cultural center. His reign marked a significant period in the history of Delhi and the establishment of the Delhi Sultanate.
