State of Private Trade Between England and India since 1793
The Indian Registers of External Commerce show private trade growth after 1793 driven by company officers and indigo culture, yet no new articles for Indian natives were exported. Of 54,000 tons allotted for private trade, only 21,806 tons were used for European goods, indicating no real opening to sell European articles to Indians.
