The Second Stage is called Industrial Capitalism (1813 to 1858): India became the chief exporter of raw materials to British industries and also served as the main market to manufacture British goods.

The third Stage is called Financial Capitalism (1858 to 1947): England reinvested their finance in all major industries like steel, jute, cement and banking.
