Nontrivial magnetic textures have attracted interest for improving desired properties in spintronic devices. Materials with non-centrosymmetric crystal structure are capable of inducing nontrivial spin structures due to the presence of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). We have recently reported the magnetic antiskyrmions in tetragonal Heusler material Mn1.4Pt0.9Pd0.1Sn [1]. Here, we present the effect of spin-orbit interaction in another inverse tetragonal Heusler system Mn-Pt-Ga by electrical transport measurements. The tetragonal Mn3Ga has ferrimagnetic order where Mn atoms sit on two different magnetic sublattices. The substitution of a late transition metal in place of Mn, here Pt, leads to breaking the inversion symmetry [2]. We found an anomaly in Hall resistivity which is dominating at higher Pt substitution. The behavior of Hall resistivity cannot be scaled with magnetization. This is an indication of non-coplaner spin configurations in this system which are stabilized due to increase in DMI.
