Indian arrows (Mughal ?)

Something a bit different ... I was able to pick up these four arrows out of interest quite cheaply a little while ago. Can anyone give me more information about them ? The quality of workmanship is quite high, differing forms of steel heads, reed shafts with ivory/bone nocks. Seems like remains of green paint ? in the area around the fletching. I would like to know the approximate date range and likely area of origin and any other pertinent information.

Anyway, thanks in advance.
