         British Government offered to Europeans the estates for developing tea gardens at nominal tax.  Those estates were called ‘Free Simple Estate’ or ‘Wasteland Grants’. Pau put light on such Fee Simple Estates. (Dabral, pp, 212)
              Europeans got huge land for tea estates at nominal cash just before Beckett settlement and after too. Beckett reported a list of Tea Estates (Fee Simple) details. Fee Simple estates were mostly in mainly in Chandpur Pargana.  There were Tea estates near  Gwaldam of Badhan, Mandakhal and Gadoli regions.
       In 1867, Government offered land for tea gardening in Agwara village of Kandarsyun. There was tax on that tea estate under wasteland grant law. The owner could not pay the tax. Government cancelled the Fee Simple Estate position of that owner (Pau page, 38-39)

  In 1895, there were following area for Fee Simple Estate for Tea Gardening in Garhwal-

 There was acute shortage of workers for tea estates and the wages in Garhwal was higher than feasibility for commercially growing tea.
 Therefore, tea gardening never grew in Garhwal and slowly tea gardening ended.
