Zabt and Zamindars
The main source of income available to Mughal rulers
was tax on the produce of the peasantry. In most places
peasants paid taxes through the rural elites, that is
the headman or the local chieftain. The Mughals
used one term zamindars to describe all
intermediaries, whether they were local headmen
of villages or powerful chieftains.
Akbar's revenue minister, Todar Mal, carried
out a careful survey of crop yields, prices and
areas cultivated for a 10-year period, 1570-
1580. On the basis of this data, tax was fixed
on each crop in cash. Each province was
divided into revenue circles with its own
schedule of revenue rates for individual
crops. This revenue system was known as
zabt. It was prevalent in those areas where
Mughal administrators could survey the land
