The East India Company's dissolution and claimed successors

What happened to the East India Company in the end?

It lost its governing role after 1857 and was formally dissolved in 1874; the exchange then traces claimed connections to later organizations.

Company rule ended after the 1857 rebellion, and formal dissolution followed in 1874. The panel distinguishes the loss of governing power from what it regards as the survival of commercial connections. It traces those connections through HSBC and a group associated with the creation of Vickers, while mentioning the East India Club as another surviving institution. A comparison with the postwar breakup of Japanese conglomerates explains this account of continuity through separate organizations.
