ANSWER
Itutmish was the real consolidator of Turkish rule in India. He organized a well-disciplined king's army and became the first Sultan to do so. He divided his empire into Iqtas (assignment of land in lieu of salary). Every Iqtadars had to maintain law and order and collect revenue. He issued purely Arabic coinage of silver Tanka (first to do so) weighing 175g, which remains the basis of the modern rupee and copper Jital. So all the statements are true.

Iltutmish can be called the true founder of Turkish rule in India because he consolidated the Turkish rule in India. He annexed many Rajput kingdoms like Ranthambore, Gwalior, Malwa and Ujjain, and brought them into the fold of the Delhi sultanate. He saved the empire from possible Mongol attacks.
