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.
Ground (Chennai)
A ground is a unit of land area used primarily in Chennai (Tamil Nadu), equal to exactly 2400 square feet, or approximately 222.967 m².
Standardized at 2400 sq ft in the Madras (Chennai) area during the colonial era. The name 'ground' is a direct English translation used in local property documentation.
Grounds are the primary unit for residential property in Chennai and surrounding Tamil Nadu districts. Property advertisements in Chennai commonly use grounds alongside square feet (24 grounds = 1 acre).
Standardized in colonial Madras Presidency.
