The Act was a Compromise between two conflicting views. Those who favoured the retention of the company's territorial authority were satisfied by the provision that the company should continue to govern India in trust for the crown until the Parliament should otherwise direct. While those who wanted the substitution of Crown control for that of the company were now satisfied that the number of directors were reduced from 24 to 18 of whom 6 were to be the nominees of the crown & that the quorum was fixed at 10 so that when the meetings of the court were thinly attended, the nominees of the Crown were able to have a majority. Eventually, the Directors lost their patronage. One of the main shortcomings in the act however was the continued exclusion of the people of the land with the work of legislation.
