The Indian fleet, consisting of about 200 ships equipped with cannons manufactured with the help of two Milanese Italians, was manned by Hindu, Arab and Turkish crews. Ottoman Empire soldiers were also participating on the Indian side. This encounter ended in a Portuguese victory. It was followed by another Portuguese success in the Siege of Cannanore (1507), but then, a Portuguese defeat at the Battle of Chaul in 1508.
