No Maratha Empire

What if the Marathas Confederacy had not arisen in India, what if he had been defeated early on or simply the Hindu components never got together and fought one another. How would this affect the Mughals, the revival of Hinduism in India, and the social setting of India? This all given the movements highly Hindu Nationalistic tendacies and roots akn place during its OTL history.
 
The Mughal empire would be in a much better shape. Forget about the relatively easy conquest of the Subcontinent the British enjoyed OTL.
 
Actually, more likely you have India divided up among numerous European powers, with a rump *Indian/Mughal state remaining in the north-east.
 
I have this in Vive la Francewank. Basically, the Mughals have better leadership, and the Marathas don't expand nearly as much as they did IOTL.
