I was a bit confused about the last campaign of Baji Rao against Nasir Jung the Nizam's son, according to this book he was defeated by Nasir:

[url="http://books.google.ca/books?id=Io-ONHNwsLkC&pg=PA182&dq=records+of+fort+st.+george+country+correspondence+nasir&hl=en&ei=H1brTM-KC9mynwf2t8HsAQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=3&ved=0CDgQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=records%20of%20fort%20st.%20george%20country%20correspondence%20nasir&f=false"]My link[/url]

The author refers to a Persian chronicle written around 1802 as his reference but also a contemporary English record titled "Records of Fort St. George, Country Correspondence, 1740".

VG Dighe disputes this account in his book here on pg's 202-203 and quotes Jadunath Sarkar's comments for not trusting the Persian chronicle, but he seems to be unaware of any English records:

http://library.du.ac.in/dspace/html/1/70...apter2.pdf

It is indeed strange for the winning party to grant jagirs to the losing party but what about the British records.

So I checked for that and came up with:

[url="http://books.google.ca/books?id=ek88AAAAMAAJ&pg=PA9&img=1&pgis=1&dq=narsar&sig=ACfU3U2mXdRaEL_2SSn30KAoxXxFwADycQ&edge=0"]My link[/url]

Source: Country correspondence, Public Dept, Volume 1 on google books.

So its likely that he was indeed defeated in the very last battle of his life.
