Heya!!Dear ur answer\(-ㅂ-)/ ♥ ♥ ♥....
The Regulating Act 1773 was an Act of the Parliament of Great Britain intended to overhaul the management of the East India Company's rule in India. The Act did not prove to be a long-term solution to concerns over the Company's affairs; Pitt's India Act was therefore subsequently enacted in 1784 as a more radical reform.
=The Act limited Company dividends to 6% until it repaid a GB£1.5M loan (passed by an accompanying act, 13 Geo. 3 c. 64) and restricted the Court of Directors to four-year terms.
=/It prohibited the servants of company from engaging in any private trade or accepting presents or bribes from the natives.
