After attaining the right to collect revenue in Bengal in the year 1765, the East India Company mostly ceased importing silver and gold, which it had previously used to pay for goods shipped back to Britain.
Additionally, as under Mughal Emperor Rule, land revenue collected in the Bengal Presidency supported finance the Company's wars in different parts of India.
