Timur invaded India in 1398 AD. At that time Nasiruddin Mahmud of the Tughlaq Dynasty was in power. He looted from Delhi and the adjoining areas. Immediately following the invasion, the Tughlaq dynasty was overthrown. Timur, a pious Muslim, claimed that Sultan Nasiruddin Mahmud of Delhi was treating his Hindu subjects too leniently.

By the time Timur reached Delhi, his army's military effectiveness was in jeopardy due to the amount of loot and slaves it had acquired.
