I bought this at an antique shop in Tamil Nadu, India. It was a tin for Cadbury Milk Chocolate Biscuits. Did a bit of online research to try to date it - had to have been made between 1948 and 1970.The stamp on the bottom says 'Cadbury-Fry (India) Private Limited Bombay'. Cadbury entered India in 1948, and the company name changed from the one above in 1970.
