Heya buddy...!
Here is ur answer..!

Over the centuries, there has been a vast change in the meaning of the term "Hindustan". Today it is understood as India, the modern nation state. In the thirteenth century the term stood for the lands under the Delhi Sultanate. Babur used the term to describe the geography, culture, flora and fauna of the subcontinent.

Hope this much is satisfactory...!
