Thank you for this question. Please find the answer below:
The East India Company obtained the right to trade without paying custom duty in the following year;
1717 under the Farman of Mughal Emperor Farrukh Siyar.
However this was finally possible with a set of Farmans in the years 1651, 1656 and 1672. The British were supposed to pay a fixed sum of money to the Indian authorities in order to use this privilege. They were issued passes(Dastaks) for the free transportation within the country.
