Colbert established the French East India company in 1669.
In order to compete with the English and Dutch East India firms, Colbert founded the French East India Company in 1664. The French king granted it a monopoly on trade for 15 years. The French were defeated during the Seven Years' War (1756–1763) between France and England. Pondicherry, the seat of French India, was seized in 1761, and by 1769, the French had lost control of trade with India.
