MERCHANTS and industrialists reacted against colonial policies that restricted business activities.

They wanted protection against imports of foreign goods and rupee-sterling foreign exchange ratio that would discourage imports.

They formed the Indian Industrial and Commercial Congress in 1920 and Federation of the Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industries [FICCI] in 1927 to organise business and their interests.

They attacked colonial control over the Indian economy and supported the Civil Disobedience Movement.

They refused to buy and sell imported goods.

They gave financial assistance to the movement.

Most businessmen came to see Swaraj as a time when colonial restrictions on business would no longer exist and trade and industiy would flourish without constraints.
