European companies wanted to buy the same things from India - fine qualities of cloth and spices. As competition grew, profits fell, and the European trading companies started building forts and fighting each other.

European trading companies ventured across the oceans so as to look for new lands from where they could buy goods at a cheap price, and carry them back to Europe to sell at higher prices. The fine qualities of cotton and silk produced in India had a big market in Europe. Indian spices like pepper, cloves, cardamom and cinnamon too were in great demand. Hence European trading companies were attracted to India.
