Britain passed the Tea Act in 1773 primarily to support the struggling British East India Company, which was facing financial difficulties due to declining sales and surplus tea. The act allowed the company to sell tea directly to the American colonies at a reduced tax rate, effectively bypassing colonial merchants. This move aimed to boost the company's profits while asserting Britain's right to tax the colonies, ultimately leading to colonial resentment and the Boston Tea Party as a protest against perceived taxation without representation.
