Units explained
Bigha (Assam)
An Assam bigha is a traditional unit of land area used in Assam and parts of Northeast India, equal to approximately 1337.8 m² (functionally identical to the Bengal bigha).
Derived from the same colonial Bengali standardization that produced the Bengal bigha. Assam land records share much of Bengal's traditional unit system.
Assam bighas are used in property transactions and agricultural records across Assam and several other Northeast states. The unit equals 14,400 sq ft.
Standardized in colonial Bengal/Northeast India administration.
Decimal (Indian)
A decimal (Indian usage) is a unit of land area equal to 1/100 of an acre, or approximately 40.4686 m². It is identical to the cent but uses the term 'decimal' in Bengal and Bangladesh.
Same definition as the cent; the regional naming differs. 'Decimal' is preferred in West Bengal, Bangladesh, and some Northeast Indian states.
Decimals appear in property listings, agricultural records, and land documents in Bengal and Bangladesh. The term coexists with bigha (which is much larger) and katha for everyday use.
Standardized in colonial Bengal.
