ANSWER:

d - Traders

EXPLANATION:

   The British in the beginning came to India for trading purposes. The Industrial Revolution in England resulted in an increase in demand for raw materials for the factories there. At the same time, they also needed a market to sell their finished goods. India delivered such a platform to the British to fulfill all their requirements.

   The 18th century was a phase of internal power skirmish in India and with the weakening power of the Mughal Empire, the British were given the perfect chance to set-up their hold in India. They did these by means of several wars, annexations, forced treaties, and alliances with the different regional powers across the nation. Their new economic and administrative policies facilitated them in consolidating their control over India.
