A private record of Mirjamal Potdar (poddars), a well-known business family of the area provides us the house-count39 and shop-count40 of Banias and non-Banias in the qasba. The census was carried out in VS 1884/AD 1827. It records the names of individual owners with their caste designation.41 In addition it also enters the specific size of open plots owned by individuals. For shops it gives the number and name of owner with caste and their location in the market.42 In Section I, the details of house-count, had been explained.
