Years: 1760 - 1760

The Third Carnatic War had spread beyond southern India and into Bengal, where British forces had captured the French settlement of Chandernagore (now Chandannagar) in 1757.

The war is decided, however, in the south, as British commander Sir Eyre Coote decisively defeats the French under the Comte de Lally at the Battle of Wandiwash in 1760.
