Re: Indian Economic History

Hey as The known Economic history of India begins with the Indus Valley
civilization.

Indus Valley civilization

Indus Valley civilisation, the first known permanent and predominantly urban
settlement that flourished between 3500 BC and 1800 BC boasted

Mughal Empire

During the Mughal period (1526–1858) in the 16th century, the gross
domestic product of India was estimated at about 25.1% of the world
economy.

British rule


After gaining the right to collect revenue in Bengal in 1765, the East India
Company largely ceased importing gold and silver, which it had hitherto used
to pay for goods shipped back to Britain.

Agriculture and industry

The Indian economy grew at about 1% per year from 1880 to 1920, and the
population also grew at 1%.

Economic impact of British imperialism

Debate continues about the economic impact of British imperialism on India.

The issue was actually raised by conservative British politician Edmund
Burke who in the 1780s vehemently attacked the East India Company,
claiming that Warren Hastings and other top officials had ruined the Indian
economy and society
