☞Under this system, the Rajas and talaqdars were recognised as zamindars and were made the owner of the land and were supposed to pay a fixed amount of revenue.
☞The local zamindars were to collect revenue from the peasants and pay on time to company even if crops field due to flood, drought and famine, the land would be auctioned off.
☞The amount of rent to be paid was fixed permanently with no scope of revision.
