1. In all these land revenue systems, the revenue was fixed at a very high rate. In Permanent settlement, the Company fixed the revenue so high that it became difficult for zamindars to pay revenues to the Company. The settlement was oppressive for villagers as they had to pay high rent to the zamindars.
2. The property rights of peasants suffered and they faced evictions and 'begar. It led to the growth of new landlords as the property was now transferable and those zamindars who could not pay rents, their lands were auctioned.

This led to an increase in money-lending activities, which put Indian peasants under debt, which were exploited by money lenders. Led to inequalities: The Land tenure system led to increasing in social inequalities.
