What do you think the word 'benefit' means?

# data[].attributes.body
The Straits Settlements owes a debt of gratitude to the East India Company. It is true that by 1867, the prosperity of Singapore was largely due to the resourcefulness of its people. However, it should not be forgotten that the Company established an able and just administration, which allowed Singapore to build up its trade freely. While it is easy to condemn the Company for being stingy, it was not a little thing that for 34 years from 1833 to 1867, the British India Government supported a constant drain on its finances to maintain a colony from which it gained no profit, and which hardly paid a cent in taxes.

Adapted from an account by British historian L. A. Mills of the contributions of the East India Company and the British India government to the colony of Singapore before 1867, published in 1925

I can infer that the British India Government is stingy when doing business. It can be seen from the source that stated "The British India Government supported a constant drain on its finances to maintain a colony from which it gained no profit, and which hardly paid a cent in taxes" which suggested that the company wasn't willing to paid much money and hence, wasn't able to gain much profit either.
