The tiger from Rajasthan with the weigth of 149 kg and 8ft 10 inches came from this article. But it was 17 years old and died in a accident. Its now for money.... so cant open it.

I found also another good article. This male of 3-4 years weighed 172.45 kg (But on a empty stomach).

Sorry, I still don't update the tiger tables, so I think you are right with the Panna tigers 

About the tiger of 149 kg it looks like a female or a male in very bad shape. I remember a male of only 100 kg that was emaciated in India. Those records are obviously not included.

About the third tiger of 172 kg, definitelly was not un good conditions, even then I already included in one of the previous revisions.

It was a male tiger. It was short (269 cm) and 17 years old and died in a accident. I didn't read something about his conditions but it may be just too old and short.  Do you know how much weight tigers loose from let's say prime to 17 years? 

The only update for panna tigers is that the male P212 reached 213 kg in Winter according to Sunal. Reply
