B The personal property of the nobles
C Generally transferable revenue assignments
D None of the above.

Answer & Explanation

Answer: [C]

Iqtas were Generally transferable revenue assignments.

Iqtas were a form of revenue assignments or land grants that were prevalent during the Delhi Sultanate period in medieval India. Under the system of Iqtas, the rulers granted revenue rights over a particular territory or area to a noble or administrator. These revenue assignments were typically transferable, which means they could be reassigned or transferred to different individuals.

The individuals who received the iqtas, known as Iqtadars, were responsible for collecting revenue from the assigned territories and remitting a portion of it to the state treasury. The iqtadars had control over the revenue and administration of their assigned areas and were expected to maintain law and order.

Therefore, the correct answer is C) Generally transferable revenue assignments.
