Abstract :
From times immemorial, the trade and commerce served as the primary linkage among different countries across the globe. However, before the evolution of currency, the trade among nations were largely carried on the basis of barter system. But, the trade was flourished in its peak during the medieval period. So far as India is concerned,it was having strong trade links with Arabian countries from ancient times till the Britishers maintained their supremacy over India. During the medieval period roughly from 12th to 16th century, it was also having cordial and harmonious relationship with other countries of the world. On the other hand, the Muslim rulers of that time had made political and economic development in India. The towns and cities were flourished by trade and industrial activities which leads towards the general welfare. Apart from this, the foreign travellers contain descriptions of the variety of goods that were sold in the markets.
