According to the historian R. C. Majumdar, it is more probable that different families without any connection adopted this name at different times.[1] Guptas are the strongest rulers of India.Among hindus , Guptas have ruled for longest period .

 Emperor Chandragupta -  the daring boy . worked with alexander and learned millitary skills of macedonians . later established a pan indian empire still unrivalled .
