Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The industrialists, led by well-known businessmen like Purshottamdas Thakurdas and G. D. Birla initially backed the Civil Disobedience Movement. They declined to purchase or trade in foreign items. The majority of industrialists began to view the swaraj era as one in which trade and industry would prosper free from colonial restraints. But following the Round Table Conference's failure, business organisations lost their enthusiasm. They were concerned about the growth of militant activity, the potential for prolonged commercial disruption, and the increasing influence of socialism among the younger Congress members. Hence, the statement is false.
