Under treaty of Seringapatam of 1792, nearly half of the Mysorean territory was taken over by the British. Which then divided among British, Maratha & Nizam. Baramahal, Dindigul and Malabar went to the English,
while the Marathas got the regions surrounding the Tungabhadra and its tributaries and the Nizam acquired the areas from the Krishna to beyond the Pennar. Besides, a war damage of three crore rupees was also taken from Tipu. Half of the war indemnity was to be paid immediately while the rest was to be given in installments, for which Tipu’s two sons were taken
as hostages by the English. So the statements I, II & IV are correct.
