Indian e-visa application

Hey folks, While filling the indian e-visa form as a US citizen, I came across a question -

Whether I have travelled to india before?

Should I answer this question as a US Citizen or in general as a previous indian passport holder? I have surrendered my Indian passport.

if I do answer it as YES - then there is a mandatory requirement for mentioning previous Indian Visa no. issued

Technically I did visit india before obviously as I was an Indian citizen and passport holder.
Thus I do not have a indian visa no. So im not sure whether to answer the questions as "NO" I have not visited india before (as a US Citizen)

ITs a bit confusing, since I dont want any issues at the time of travelling.
