British came in and they started establishing trade under the name of The East India company. This began the exploitation.
A British person would sit in the court of the ruler and would advise him how to run the court and in return Indians will give the money to the British.
Also if there was an attack by any other Indian to country to this Indian country the British will help India.
The British bought trading rights. They were buying these from Indian rulers.
With these treaties Indian ruler, in many cases, also gave grants where in they started collecting taxes from the local population. They started getting in the daily routine of the locals.
