It depends on the part of India in question.

If you are referring to West India, much of which is now part of the independent country of Pakistan, then the answer is the Umayyad Caliphate because of General Mohammed bin Qasim.

If you are referring to the majority of the Indian subcontinent, then the answer is the Mughal Empire under Babur the Great and his successors.
