With respect to the 18th century Bengal, the term ‘Taccavi’ refers to:

Murshid Quli Khan effected economies in the administration and reorganized the finances of Bengal by transferring large parts of jagir lands into khalisa lands, by carrying out fresh revenue settlements. He also introduced a new system of revenue farming. He recruited revenue farmers and officials from local zamindars and merchant bankers. Murshid Quli Khan granted agricultural loans, known as Taccavi, to the poor cultivators to relieve their distress, as well as to enable them to pay land revenue in time.
