Answer:
On 21 May 1662, the marriage treaty of Charles II of England and Catherine of Braganza, daughter of King John IV of Portugal, placed Bombay in possession of the British Empire, as part of dowry of Catherine to Charles.
But it was was on 11th May 1661 that the seven islands that constitute Bombay (now Mumbai) and ports of Tangier were given in dowry by King John IV of Portugal when his daughter Catherine of Braganza married Charles II of England.
