भूतपातप्रत्याय (bhUtapAtapratyAya)

 
Indian Epigraphical Glossary
English
bhūta-pāta-pratyāya (CII 4), explained by some as ‘excise
and octroi duties’
but really, ‘the income resulting from storms,
earthquakes, changes in the course of a river, etc’. See bhūta-
vāta-pratyāya, etc. Pāta may be a mistake for upātta or vāta.
