Calculations

Arhat (Commission)·آڑھت

Roman Urdu: Aarhat / Adhat / Aadhat

The percentage commission an adhati charges on the sale value of every lot — typically 1.5% to 2.5% depending on crop, party, and mandi convention. Arhat is calculated on the gross sale amount BEFORE bardana and other deductions, then split between buyer-side and farmer-side as per local custom. Pakka Khata computes both sides automatically based on a rule set per crop, party and season.

Example usage

Example: Arhat (Commission) is shown as a separate line on the parchi so the farmer, buyer, and munshi can see the final settlement clearly.

Frequently asked: Arhat (Commission)

How is arhat calculated on a wheat lot?+
Example: 100 maund wheat sold at PKR 4,000/maund = PKR 400,000 gross. At 2% arhat, the adhati earns PKR 8,000 — split (typically 1% each) between kissan and beopari per local convention.
Is the same arhat rate used for every party?+
No. Larger or more loyal beoparis often get a discounted rate. Pakka Khata supports per-party arhat overrides so the rule is automatic on every lot.
Does arhat include GST or market committee fee?+
No. Arhat is the adhati's commission only. GST/STRN tax and the provincial market committee fee are separate line items on the parchi.
