Think of it like this: India is a company and you are the CEO. The market is disrupted and you sat on your ass - will the stock holders be happy with you because the stock price went down, but hey - you were still doing the same thing for 100 years with no change, so congrats?
A State is the same as a company, except worse - they have an army and a monopoly on violence. After a war, when a king takes over, they tried to integrate with the new people, marry into them and in this way eventually begin to rule them. That began to change when people’s skin color was drastically different. The term Colonists was invented to convey how race got into the mix. The British were never a Raj (kings), they never ruled over India in the traditional sense of the word. They were colonists - they colonized and decimated the Indian economy.
Forget the economy, they decimated the population:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famine_in_India#Scholarly_opinions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famine_in_India#Scholarly_opin...
