Answer:

India dominated the cotton textile market in the 18th century. It took a severe hit when the Industrial Revolution began in England around 1760s. The use of steam power in British mills reduced the cost of cotton by 85 %. In order to protect its domestic industry, it began to restrict textile imports from India
