Match List I (Acts of Colonial Government of India) with List II (Provisions) and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists

(Acts of colonial government of India) | (Provisions)
A. Charter Act, 1813 | 1. Set up a Board of Control in Britain to fully regulate the east India Company’s affairs in India
B. Regulating Act | 2. Company’s trade monopoly in India was ended
C. Act of 1858 | 3. The power to govern was transferred from the East India Company to the British Crown
D. Pitt’s India Act | 4. The Company’s directors were asked to present to the British government all correspondence and documents pertaining to the administration of the company

The Regulating Act (1773) created the office of the Governor‑General of Bengal with an Executive Council and framed provisions for judicial and administrative control — matching provision 2. Pitt’s India Act (1784) established a Board of Control and a dual system separating political supervision from the Company’s commercial directors — matching provision 4. The Charter Acts (notably 1833) ended the Company’s commercial activities and transformed it into an administrative body — matching provision 3 [1]. The Government of India Act (1858) transferred the Company’s administrative powers to the Crown and redefined the Governor‑General as the Crown’s Viceroy — matching provision 1 [1]. Hence A-2, B-4, C-3, D-1 (option 1).
