Detailed Solution

Political methods, Diplomatic methods, and Economic Methods did the East India Company use to extend its influence before usurping an Indian kingdom.
In the battle of Plassey, the Company resolved several problems of taxes and settlements. Later in the battle of Buxar in 1764, they also won, but their revenue wasn't enough for their expenses. Then they became nawabs and directly took control of the state. When their rule expanded, they had certain ways and aspects of making its influence and dignity. The Company did not attack directly on any territory. But instead of that, they used several other ways to enter the territory through political, diplomatic, and economic methods. They used the scheme of 'subsidiary alliance".
