During the Maratha rule in the Deccan (17th-18th centuries), "Chauth" was a tax that represented one-fourth (25%) of the land revenue collected from territories not directly under Maratha control. Neighboring rulers paid this tribute to the Marathas in exchange for protection and to avoid military campaigns against them. This system helped expand Maratha influence and power in the region by allowing them to extract resources from neighboring territories.
