I know Britain exploited the hell out of India as a colony, but what IP did they steal?

Or did you just mean stolen resources?

I don’t have a reference, but high quality steel making would be one.

You don't have a reference, because high quality steel was invented in the U.S.

India had 25% of world's before Britishers arrived and sucked all the wealth to bring it down to 4% when they left. That's some serious exploitation.

India had advanced steel making, ship making and textile technologies which were taken by the British.

Huh, I am Indian and have never heard it said like this. Do you have any sources to back this up, apart from the rockets and textile industries?
