The British wanted the Indians to export raw materials to Britain as Indian raw materials were of good quality, low cost and also as the Indian market would accept the goods whose raw materials originated there.

Another reason is that the British knew that once trade was successfully established, it would be easier to colonize Indian Princely States.
