Sorry to be pedantic, but not up until, but from the 15th century or so (Babur) until some time in the 18th century (Battle of Plassey). And not all of India but a northern region. Indian history and geography are just too vast to be contained in simple phrases (including what I said above)

You're off by a few centuries. Even if you use the boundaries of present day India as the threshold, Muslim led empires have controlled a majority of the land and the people since at least two centuries before Babur. Nor was it restricted to just North India - the Khilji controlled almost all of South India, even beyond Madurai, as early as 1320. As the power of the Delhi Sultanate waned, its territory was snapped up by other Sultanates, with even more territory held by vassal states. By 1300 the Sultanates would hold more of modern day India than not, and would continue to do so till their consolidation by the Mughals.
