सर्वमान्य (sarvamAnya)

 
Indian Epigraphical Glossary
English
sarva-mānya (IE 8-5, SITI
CITD), a free tenure
a
rent-free holding
land exempted from taxes
lands and villages
fully exempt from all taxes. This corresponds to the
iṟaiyili class of land mentioned in the Col13a inscriptions. Often
this is associated with aṣṭa-bhoga, i. e. the eight forms of enjoy-
ing the land. For a discussion of this form of land tenure, see
JAHRS, Vol. X, pp. 123-32. It is noteworthy that even the
so-called tax-free (iṟaiyili) lands paid to the king certain dues
of the nature of taxes. See K. A. Nilakanta Sastri, The
Col13as, 2nd ed., pp. 534-35. See sarva-namasya, etc.
