The clause about the further increase of tribute of these five states in case of mismanagement of Ābkārī revenue in their own states to the detriment of such revenue in British territory is also present. By the Sanad of 1905 the tribute of Kalahandi was increased by Rs. 8450, that of Patna by Rs. 7900, that of Rairākhol by Rs. 220 and that of Sonpur by Rs. 4000 after 38 years. So the principle of enhancement of tribute at regular intervals with these Sambalpur chiefs remained a recognised fact even after their exaltation to the rank of feudatory chiefs.
