Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Regulating Act of 1773.

The Pitt’s India Act, 1784 also called the East India Company Act, 1784 was passed by the British Parliament to correct the defects of the Regulating Act of 1773.

The Charter Act 1853 was passed in the British Parliament to renew the East India Company’s charter. This Act was passed when Lord Dalhousie was the Governor-General of India.

The Charter Act of 1793, also known as the East India Company Act 1793 was passed in the British Parliament in which the company charter was renewed.
