Step-by-Step Calculation:
- Identify the total land area in Bigha.
- Multiply the Bigha value by 5.
- The result is the exact land area in Katha.

Assam Land Revenue Measurement Standard & District Conventions
Comprehensive guide to Bigha, Katha, Lessa formulas codified by the Directorate of Land Records & Surveys, Revenue and Disaster Management Department, Government of Assam.
1. The Mathematical Hierarchy: 1 Bigha = 5 Katha = 100 Lessa
In Assam, cadastral survey and revenue administration operate under a standardized non-metric system deeply rooted in historical land settlement rules. Unlike North India (where a Bigha may vary from 6,804 sq ft to 27,225 sq ft) or Bengal (where a Bigha equals 14,400 sq ft or 20 Cottahs), Assam adheres strictly to a decimal-base revenue division:
14,400 Sq Ft
5 Katha • 100 Lessa • 1,337.80 m²2,880 Sq Ft
20 Lessa • 0.20 Bigha • 267.56 m²144 Sq Ft
0.05 Katha • 0.01 Bigha • 13.38 m²When dealing with international or national property acquisitions: 1 Acre equals exactly 43,560 square feet, which calculates to 3.025 Bighas (or 3 Bighas, 0 Kathas, and 2.5 Lessas). Conversely, 1 Hectare equals 107,639 square feet, or approximately 7.4749 Bighas.
2. Revenue Circle Conventions Across Assam Districts
While the numerical ratios remain uniform across the state, revenue circles and municipal bodies apply specific regulatory nuances during mutation (Dakhil Kharij) and sale permission approvals:
Governed by GMDA (Guwahati Metropolitan Development Authority) zoning and master plan guidelines. Minimum plot frontage requirements are enforced in Katha and Lessa units for building permission approval. Urban residential plots typically trade in Kathas and Lessas (e.g. 1 Katha 10 Lessa = 4,320 sq ft).
Characterized by major agricultural tracts and tea estates. Agricultural leasehold and Periodic Patta (Myadi Patta) parcels are documented in Bighas, with stringent revenue ceilings on farmland fragmentation below 1 Bigha.
High agricultural transaction volume with extensive Jamabandi digitizations on the Dharitree portal. All Khiraj Patta land boundary verifications rely on Village Lot Mondals measuring plots in standard Bigha-Katha-Lessa chains.
Historically influenced by the Sylhet tenancy conventions where sub-units like Chhatak, Pura, and Kiar were noted alongside Bigha measurements in pre-independence settlement archives. Current electronic records reconcile these to standard Assam Bighas.
3. Verifying Land Records on the Assam Dharitree Portal (ILRMS)
Under the Integrated Land Records Management System (ILRMS) of Assam, every parcel has three critical identifiers:
- Dag Number (দাগ নম্বৰ): The unique cadastral parcel number assigned to a demarcated piece of land on the revenue village map.
- Patta Number (পাট্টা নম্বৰ): The lease or land-deed certificate title (Periodic Patta / Myadi Patta or Annual Patta / Eksona Patta).
- Total Area (B-K-L): Expressed as three colon-separated or hyphenated digits representing [Bigha]-[Katha]-[Lessa]. For instance, a record marked
02-03-14indicates 2 Bighas, 3 Kathas, and 14 Lessas (equivalent to 39,456 square feet).
Tip: When buying land in Assam, always compute the exact square footage using Aajori’s calculator and cross-verify with physical GPS coordinates from your registered deed before executing registry stamp duty.
