Question

What is the difference between present day collection of taxes and collection of taxes in the Delhi sultanate

Answer 1

the peasants' produce; tax on cattle; and tax on houses.

Mongol attacks on the Delhi Sultanate increased during the reign of Alauddin Khalji and in the early years of Muhammad Tughluq’s rule. This forced the sultans to prepare a large standing army in Delhi, and that was a huge administrative challenge.
