The land revenue system adopted by Akbar was largely based on Sher Shah’s system. However Akbar introduced slight modifications and his system was called Zabti or Bandobast system, which was further improved by Raja Todar Mal.
Under the Mansabdari system the mansab rank was not hereditary and the lowest rank was 10 and the highest was 5,000 for the nobles. All appointments and promotions as well as dismissals in the Mansabdari system were directly made by the emperor.
