Solution

The correct option is D Neither 1 nor 2

Explanation:

  • Statement 1 is incorrect: Chauth and Sardeshmukhi were other sources of income: Chauth amounted to 1/4th of the produce which was to be paid to Marathas as a safeguard against Shivaji’s forces plundering or raiding Non-Maratha territories. Sardeshmukhi was an additional levy of ten percent on those lands for which the Marathas claimed hereditary rights.
  • Statement 2 is incorrect: Chauth and sardeshmukhi were the taxes collected not in the Maratha kingdom but in the neighbouring territories of the Mughal empire or Deccan sultanates.
