The defeat in the Battle of Plassey in 1757 was primarily due to the lack of unity among Indian rulers, as many were unwilling to support Siraj-ud-Daula against the British East India Company. Additionally, internal betrayal, particularly by Mir Jafar, who was promised support from the British in exchange for his allegiance, significantly weakened the Nawab's position. The British also had superior military tactics, better organization, and the advantage of artillery, which contributed to their victory. Furthermore, the British exploited political divisions and used diplomatic maneuvers effectively to undermine the Nawab's forces.
