Answer 2

Explanation:

Trade Surplus refers to the amount by which the value of a country's exports exceeds the cost of its imports, In short country's export is more than the imports.

Here it is given that britishers export to India from britain was more than the import from india to Britain. This increased their income and helped the britishers to establish their domininance over india. They could now pay off the interests payments on India's debt (as India took debt from many countries to sustain its livelihood), pensions to british officials working in India and could pay the rent of the homes of the british officials in India.
