Revenue division

A revenue division or sub-division is an administrative division of a district in India for the purpose of revenue administration. It comprises multiple tehsils. Revenue division is headed by a sub-divisional magistrate (also known as assistant collector, sub collector, or assistant commissioner). In some states, the post is designated as Revenue Divisional Officer (RDO) or Sub-Divisional Officer (Civil).

Revenue division or sub-division should not be confused with divisions of a state. States are divided into multiple divisions (headed by divisional commissioners in some states), and these divisions are further divided into districts (headed by district magistrates, collectors, or deputy commissioners).
