answered-by-expert Expert Answer
The Battle of Buxar was fought in 1764 between the English East India Company and the combined armies of Mir Qasim (the nawab of Bengal), the nawab of Awadh and the mughal emperor Shah Alam II. The employees of the Company misused their trading privileges. They sold their duty free trade permits to the Indain merchants. This led to huge loss of revenues to the Bengal nawab. To put an end to this, the nawab abolished all duties on internal trade. Thus, Battle of Buxar broke out in 1763 between Mir Qasim and the British. Mir Qasim formed an alliance with teh nawab of Awadh, Shuja-ud-Daulah and the Mughal emperor, Shah Alam II. The Indians were defeated in thsi batle. 
Significance of the Battle of Buxar: 
  1. The victory of the British in the Battle of Buxar established them as masters of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa.
  2. It gave them political influence and control over Awadh and the Mughal emperor.
  3. Therefore, it laid the foundation of British rule in India.
