Raghunathrao, unwilling to give up his position of power, goes to Khambhat with hope of getting help from the British, who do not help but transport him to Surat from their ship. 

Here he signs the Treaty of Surat on March 6, 1775.

According to the treaty, Raghunathrao cedes the territories of Salsette and Bassein to the British, along with part of the revenues from Surat and Bharuch districts.

In return, the British promise  to provide Raghunathrao with twenty-five hundred soldiers.
