the causes were
1. the doctrine of lapse :the doctrine of lapse meant that when a ruler of a dependent state died without a natural heir the state passed back to the English company.
it was startes by Lord Dalhousie.
the states to fall victim to this doctrine were Satara,Nagpur and Jhansi

2.Discourtesy to the Mughal Emperor: Lord Canning made it known that Bahadur Shah successive would not be allowed to use the Imperial title i.e. the title of 'King'. such a discourtesy to the Mughal emperor hurt people's sentiment considerably

3. Treatment meted out to Nana saheb : Dalhousie refused to give pension to Nana Saheb who was the adopted son of Baji Rao 2
this hurt the feelings of the hindus leading to the revolt


hope it helps you
