When goods were produced in Britain, the British did not only sell their, to the people of Britain. Rather, they bought it to India to sell it people in India. When the people in India started buying British goods, the indian craftsmen and industries(like cotton and other textiles), suffered a loss because no one bought their goods.
The very unfair thing was that, most of the British goods were made with raw materials taken from India. For Instance, they cotton harvest from India was taken to Britain where clothes were made and then the clothes were brought back to India for selling it to the Indian people.
