The Decline of the Textile Market in India
Cotton industries developed in England and they did not want textiles to be imported from other countries like India.
Import duties were imposed on Indian textiles that entered England. This made imported goods costlier and soon imports declined. The textiles made in India did not have a market now.
Indian textile exports declined from 33 % to 3% in the mid 1880s.
The Manchester Textile Company in England flourished due to the import duties.
Soon textiles manufactures in England, were sold in India, through the East India Company.
The problems faced by the textile manufacturers in India in the late 1800s
Exports declined and import of textiles increased. That is, the Indian textile manufactures could neither sell their goods outside India nor could they sell their goods inside India.
Import of English textiles into India increased from 31 % to 50 %.
As imported machine –made textiles was cheaper, the Indian weavers could not compete with it.
Raw cotton from India was exported to feed the Cotton mills of England and the Indian textile industry was without enough raw materials.
Soon mechanised textile mill were also set up in India and the hand -weavers were virtually without any work.
