That's a fascinating question! It doesn't have a simple answer with a specific name. We're talking about prehistory, not recorded history. The very first human relatives in India were likely Homo erectus, who lived there over a million years ago. We know this from ancient stone tools they left behind.
If you mean the first anatomically modern humans, or Homo sapiens like us, that's a different story. Current evidence suggests they began arriving from Africa around 65,000 years ago. It wasn't one person, but rather small groups of hunter-gatherers populating the subcontinent over a very long period. So there's no single 'first person' we can ever identify.
