The correct answer is: A. 1928

India won its first Olympic hockey gold in 1928 at the Amsterdam Summer Olympics. The team was led by Dhyan Chand, who is considered to be one of the greatest hockey players of all time. India won all of its matches at the Olympics, including a 3-0 victory over the Netherlands in the final.

The other options are incorrect because India did not win an Olympic hockey gold medal in those years. In 1932, India won the silver medal, losing to the United States in the final. In 1936, India won the bronze medal, losing to Germany in the semi-finals and defeating the Netherlands in the bronze medal match. In 1948, India won its second Olympic hockey gold medal, defeating Great Britain in the final.

India is one of the most successful countries in Olympic hockey, having won eight gold medals, one silver medal, and two bronze medals. The country has also won the Hockey World Cup a record eight times.
