Correct Answer: 3


Solution : The correct answer is 3.

The three types of taxes used by Khalji were jizya, gharia, and zakat. These taxes are the sources of money in his treasure. Despite that, he also used to impose extra taxes on Hindus. The tax levied on non-Muslims in the Sultanate was known as the Jizya tax, whereas the tax levied on houses was called the Gharia tax. Lastly, the tax imposed on agricultural land was called the Kharaj tax.
