After independence, india was receiving foreign aid from international places because everyone wanted india to be a successful democratic country.

All countries that produce major military hardware sell them individually. Trade balance was in favour of china. Opium is grown in india and has been grown there for a very long time. Hong kong was owned by the british, and was used as a port. After 1947, british india went backwards because of restrictive laws they passed, and they cut themselves off from international trade.
