They were vassals who ruled, mostly hereditarily, over their respective territories. They commanded not only a considerable part of the economic resources of the empire but also military power. After the conquest of Hindustan, Babur informs us that one-sixth of its total revenues came from the territories of the chiefs. He writes: "The revenue of the countries now held by me (1528 A.D.) from Bhira to <a href="/wiki/Bihar" title="Bihar">Bihar</a>, is fifty-two crores as will be known in detail.

Even the ruling autonomous chiefs of princely states were called zamindars. Moreland was one of the first historians to draw our attention to the importance of zamindars in medieval India. He defines zamindars as "vassal chiefs". He points out that there were areas under direct control of Mughals where there were no zamindars and then there were territories of the vassal chiefs who had autonomy over their state, but were subjugated by the <a href="/wiki/Mughals" class="mw-redirect" title="Mughals">Mughals</a> and paid a tribute/ nazarana to the Mughal Emperor. However, Irfan Habib in his book <a href="/wiki/Agrarian_system" title="Agrarian system">Agrarian system</a> of Mughal India, divided the zamindars into two categories: the autonomous chiefs who enjoyed "sovereign power" in their territories and the ordinary zamindars who exercised superior rights in land and collected land revenue and were mostly appointed by the Mughals.<sup id="cite_ref-Ansari_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Ansari-10"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> These people were known as the zamindars (intermediaries)<sup id="cite_ref-Jaffrelot2000_12-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Jaffrelot2000-12"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and they collected revenue primarily from the <a href="/wiki/Ryot" title="Ryot">Ryots</a> (<a href="/wiki/Peasant" title="Peasant">peasants</a>).<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The zamindari system was more prevalent in the north of India because Mughal influence in the south was less apparent.<sup id="cite_ref-Jaffrelot2000_12-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Jaffrelot2000-12"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Historian <a href="/wiki/S._Nurul_Hasan" class="mw-redirect" title="S.

After 1857 the army of the majority of zamindars were abolished with exception of a small number of force for policing/digwari/kotwali in their respective estates. If the zamindars were not able to pay the rent until sunset, parts of their estates were acquired and auctioned. This created a new class of zamindars in the society. As the rest of India came later under the control of the <a href="/wiki/East_India_Company" title="East India Company">East India Company</a> (EIC), different ways were implemented in different provinces to in regards to the ruling authorities in the region to get them to accede to Company authority. </p><p>The British generally adopted the extant zamindari system of revenue collection in the north of the country. They recognised the zamindars as landowners and proprietors as opposed to Mughal government and in return required them to collect taxes. Although some zamindars were present in the south, they were not so in large numbers and the British administrators used the <a href="/wiki/Ryotwari" title="Ryotwari">ryotwari</a> (cultivator) method of collection, which involved selecting certain farmers as being land owners and requiring them to remit their taxes directly.<sup id="cite_ref-Jaffrelot2000_12-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Jaffrelot2000-12"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Zamindars_of_Bengal" title="Zamindars of Bengal">Zamindars of Bengal</a> were influential in the development of Bengal.

According to an estimate in the Imperial Gazetteer of India, there were around 2000 ruling chiefs holding the royal title of Raja and Maharaja which included the rulers of princely states and several large chiefdoms.
