The benefit of the Britain colonizing India was that trade of cotton, silk, indigo, and tea grew quickly. As trade grew so did the powers of the companies that were doing the trading. They secured a foothold in India and built trading post around the borders of the country. At first, the Indians that approved of British rule did so because of the trade, money was also being made. Jobs came along when the British company's hired Indians to be soldiers who were known as Sepoy's. Even though they were paid very low, it still was better than no job at all, and they were relied on to enforce company policies. This is the reason why they approved British companies at first. However, other Indians oppose the British because they were expanding and taking over India. The British companies took the Indian coast between 1785 and 1804, which cause the Mughal Empire to decline, and this made matters worse between the Indians and British companies. By mid 1800s, the company's controlled most of India, but not before defeating the Mughal army in 1757.
