The Manchester textile industry came to India primarily during the 19th century due to the demand for raw cotton and the potential for profit in the Indian market. The British sought to establish control over cotton production and textiles, leveraging India's vast resources and labor.

This led to significant economic exploitation and the establishment of a colonial economy centered around textiles.
