The Theosophical Society established its headquarters in India in 1882, specifically in Adyar. Adyar is a neighborhood in Chennai, formerly known as Madras, which is the capital city of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Option 2, Belur, is incorrect as the headquarters of the Theosophical Society in India was not established there. Option 3, Avadi, and option 4, Vellore, are also incorrect as the Theosophical Society did not establish its headquarters in these places either. Therefore, the correct answer is option 1, 1882-Adyar.
