The East India Company had consolidated its business by the mid-eighteenth century. The earlier centres of trade; like Surat and Hooghly; declined during this period. The new centres; like Calcutta and Bombay emerged.
Once the East India Company established political power, it began to assert its monopoly right to trade.
The Company tried to eliminate the existing traders and brokers who were connected with the cloth trade. It tried to establish a more direct control on the weavers. A paid servant; called gomastha was appointed to supervise weavers, collect supplies, and examine the quality of cloth.
