- AKartalab Khan
- BBahadur Shah
- CAlivardi Khan
- DChin Qilich Khan
Explanation
Chin Qilich Khan, the Mughal viceroy of the Deccan, assumed the title of Nizam-ul-Mulk Asaf Jah and established himself as an independent ruler with his base at Hyderabad in 1724. Kartalab Khan, Bahadur Shah and Alivardi Khan are not associated with this title. Hence Chin Qilich Khan is the correct answer.
