The British provincial time in India crossed more than three centuries, beginning from the year 1615, when the East India Company procured its first piece of an area in Bombay, through the 1857 revolt and the takeover by the British Crown in 1858, till the year 1947, when India acquired autonomy. During this period, the British developed and raised sublime public structures and private homes in significant Indian urban communities and at slope stations what worked as their late spring retreat.
