When the Seven Years' War began in Europe in 1756, its repercussions were felt in India as well.
Following the Seven Years' War, Clive, who was in Bengal, captured Chandranagar. The French government sent an army to India under the command of Count de Laly to launch a strong counterattack against the English.
As a result of the Third Carnatic War, the French captured Fort St. George.
The French were defeated in successive naval battles with the English.
Sir Ayrcourt, who arrived in Madras in 1759, completely defeated the French army at Vandiwash.
Then the British captured the French territories in the Carnatic.
In 1761, Puducherry also came under the control of the English.
Finally, the Third Carnatic War ended in 1763 with the Treaty of Paris.
According to this treaty, the French territories were handed over to the British.
