East India company was founded on 31 December 1600, whose primary purpose was to trade with India. However, due to their Dutch and French competitors they failed to enter in Indian market until 1608 when they first enter into Surat which is located on the west coast of India.

Sir Thomas Roe from company reached the court of the Mughal Emperor, Jahangir, as the emissary of King James I in 1615, and gained for the British the right to establish a factory at Surat.

Then the company rented a trading outpost in Madras (now Chennai) in 1639.

Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan gave the permission to trade with Bengal, where Company had established their factory in 1641. In 1717, the Company achieved its most notable success when the Mughal Emperor exempting the Company from the payment of custom duties in Bengal.
