Government of India Act 1858	This act is also known as Act for the Betterment of India. Abolished Board of Directors and Council of Directors, thus ended dualism in Indian administration. It provided for Secretary of state for India who would be a member of the British Cabinet. Governor-General of India as representing the Crown became known as the Viceroy of India. This act provided that the authority and the dignity of the rulers could be maintained and it put an end to further annexation and conquest.
Charter Act of 1813	The monopoly of EIC was abolished in terms of trade with India. The company still enjoyed the monopoly in terms of tea and china trade for 20 more years. This act provided a grant of one lakh rupees per annum for the promotion of education in India. This act gave power to local governments to impose and collect taxes. Christian missionaries were allowed to enter British India and preach Christianity
Charter Act of 1793	Privileges of EIC were extended for 20 more years. Commander in chief henceforth would not be a member of the council. This act granted the authority to grant licenses to individuals and company employees to carry on trade in India.
Pitt's India Act 1784	It established an authority in England to supervise the company's affairs. This is known as the Board of Control having 6 members. Governor-General in the council has more powers over Bombay and Madras Governors in matters related to the War, Revenue and Diplomacy.
