When Alivardi Khan died in 1756, Sirajuddaulah became the nawab of Bengal. The Company was worried about his power and keen on a puppet ruler who would willingly give trade concessions and other privileges. ... Then he marched to Calcutta to establish control over the Company's fort there.

Answer:

It wanted more territories and more revenue. By the time Mir Jafar died in 1765 the mood of the Company had changed. Having failed to work with puppet nawabs, Clive declared: “We must indeed become nawabs ourselves.” ... This was because at this time Britain had no goods to sell in India.

After the Battle of Plassey, the original nawabs of Bengal were forced to give land and vast sums of money as personal gifts to Company officials. ... So 'nabob' became an Anglo-Indian term for East India Company servants who became very rich through corrupt trade and other practices.

Hope this helped :)
