Answer:
European trade with India was extremely lucrative, and the British first arrived in 1600 (the East India Company) to set up a Factory -- this then being a warehouse where goods for shipment to England would be stored to await a trading vessel. There was a strong demand for cotton, indigo, saltpetre, and salt.
