Explanation:

The revenue system that was implemented in the Madras and some parts of Bombay presidency was known as the ryotwari settlement. In contrast to the permanent system, the revenue was settled directly with the ryot. The average income from different types of soil has been estimated, the revenue-paying capacity of the ryot has been assessed and the proportion of it has been fixed as the share of the state. Land was resurveyed every 30 years and the rate of revenue increased. Consequently, the need for revenue was no longer constant and was not set in perpetuity.
