Shah Alam Bahadur, the eldest son of Aurangzeb, ascended the Mughal throne after a brief war of succession. During his reign, the important Deccan mint of Khujista Bunyad (the imperial name for Aurangabad) continued to function as a major Mughal striking center. Because much of the Deccan had been consolidated under Aurangzeb, Khujista Bunyad remained strategically and financially significant.
