Option 1 : Permanent Settlement

The Correct Answer is Permanent Settlement.

  • The East India Company, led by the Governor-General Lord Cornwallis in 1793, brought into effect the Permanent Settlement of Bengal.
  • This was essentially an arrangement to adjust the land income between the company and the Zamindars.
  • This was first enacted in Bengal, Bihar and Odisha, and later followed in the presidency of northern Madras and in the district of Varanasi.
  • Cornwallis thought this scheme was influenced by England's prevalent land revenue system, where the landlords were the permanent masters of their properties, receiving rent from the peasants and taking care of their interests.
  • He imagined the development in India of a hereditary class of landlords. The Zamindari System was also called this system.

  • Jagirdari system, a type of land tenancy established during the period of Muslim rule in India (beginning in the early 13th century) in which an official of the state was given the collection of the revenues of an estate and the power to administer it.
  • One of the three major land tenure revenue systems in British India, the Mahalwari system, is the zamindar (landlord) and the ryotwari (individual cultivator).
  • One of the three primary methods of income collection in British India is the Ryotwari scheme. In most of southern India, it was prevalent, the regular structure of the Madras Presidency being (a British-controlled area now constituting much of present-day Tamil Nadu and portions of neighbouring states).

You have to consider the following assumption and decide which of the assumption is implicit in the statement. Statement: The June 2018 quarter results of Infosys reflect that the investors waiting for the company to perform as good, if not better, than its largest peer Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) may have to wait a little longer. Infosys, the country’s second-largest software exporter reported slower sequential growth in revenue and profit than TCS for the June quarter (Q1). It also lagged on the fronts of employee attrition and growth in the banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) vertical.  Assumptions: I. On the positive side, Infosys continued to add large clients – four in the above $100-million billing category compared with the previous quarter.

In the near term, the stock performance of TCS is likely to overshadow Infosys given the difference in their growth trajectories. III. The growth momentum of Infosys has slowed relative to TCS. The year-on-year growth in trailing 12-month (TTM) revenue of Infosys in each of the four quarters up to the June 2018 quarter has lagged TCS after leading in the previous five quarters.?
