Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C), (D)

The correct options are
B Britain started selling its finished goods in India.
C India produced finest cotton but Britain regulated tax to reduce imports.
D Britain grew opium on Indian land and sold it to China in exchang tea.

India acted as a centre for raw materials like cotton and as a market for the finished goods. The British grew opium in India and exported it to China. The revenue generated by selling opium was used to buy tea and goods. Industries flourished in England, and many labourers were taken from Africa and India to work there.
