A tehsildar is an Indian revenue administrative officer. The name is of mughal origins.

A present-day equivalent position in the Indian government would be a District Collector. A District Collector is a Central Indian Government appointee who is in charge of the governance of a district in a state.

District Collectors are officers of the Indian Administrative Service and are the most powerful government officials of the district. They are entrusted the task of handling law and order, revenue collection, taxation, the control of planning permission and the handling of natural and man-made emergencies. A collector was a crucially important colonial officer placed at the district level and entrusted with the responsibility of revenue collection and other civil duties.
