The given statement is True.
Mansabdar is a term that refers to an individual who holds a mansab, meaning a position or Rank. The mansabdars were people from Rajput, Afghans, and Marathas who joined Mughal services. It was a grading system used by the Mughals. Its main purpose was to determine the Rank, salary, and military responsibilities. A numerical value known as Zat is used to determine the Rank and salary of Mansabdar. The higher value of Zat means that a particularly noble person holds a higher position in the court. He was also awarded a higher salary. The mansabdars got their salaries as revenue assignments. These revenue assignments were called jagirs.
