Your introduction makes it seem like the British rule was good for India. You can just mention the colonial interests of the British- increase the company’s main profits, enhance the profitability of its possessions and maintain and strengthen the British hold over India. and move on.
In the next part, no need to mention about Mughal period etc separately. Just mention the impact of British rule- while framing those points you can give some background, this is a 10 mark question, so address the main crux of the question well and that should be it.
You can mention things like- India became a supplier of raw material, from net exporter to net importer of finished goods(things you have mentioned in conclusion), de-industrialisation, ruralisation, introduction of railway, telegraph etc for their own commercial interests.
Sector wise analysis is good, include those points in same subheading.
In conclusion, last line should suffice. Other things can be incorporated in the body of the answer itself.
Keep writing. 🙂

Intro is looking like one of the points of the economic interests only. Better, you can mention the colonial interests of the British- increase the company’s main profits, enhance the profitability of its possessions and maintain and strengthen the British hold over India.
In second part, you have mentioned some good points, de-industrialisation, ruralisation can be mentioned, killing of handicraft industry can be mentioned here only.
In conclusion, you can mention the overall impact on national movement- t acted as a stimulus for intellectual unrest and spread of national consciousness (can mention about Dadabhai Naoroji’s work).
Keep practicing. 🙂

Good attempt. Introduction is fine, however after that mention what were the colonial interests of the British.
Give subheading regarding implications on the economy.
Points are good, you have covered most things.
Conclusion is also fine. However, you can mention that it acted as a stimulus for intellectual unrest and spread of national consciousness during the freedom struggle.
Keep practicing. 🙂

Introduction is okay but it will be better if you can mention what were the colonial interests of the British- increase the company’s main profits, enhance the profitability of its possessions and maintain and strengthen the British hold over India. This is asked in the question itself, in one way.
Next part is good, some points are very nicely explained.
Mention about India becoming a supplier of raw material and turning from net exporter to net importer of finished goods.
Introduction of railways, telegraph etc can be mentioned here only, however the British introduced these things for their interests only- not to make India modern etc as you have mentioned in conclusion.
In conclusion you can mention about Naoroji’s book and how this economic drain acted as a stimulus for intellectual unrest and spread of national consciousness during the freedom struggle.
Keep practicing. 🙂
