After Aurangzeb, local rulers gained more power, before the British slowly took control of India.

Reason: Aurangzeb’s long wars and centralization weakened the empire; after his death regional powers (Marathas, Sikhs, Bengal, Hyderabad, etc.) asserted autonomy, succession struggles and administrative decline followed, and the British East India Company exploited these divisions to gain control.
