Reading 2 decimal in a Bihar record

Bihar jamabandi and khatiyan records show land in acre and decimal. A small house plot may appear as 0.02 acre, which is 2 decimal. Locally the same land may be described in katha and dhur. Since the katha varies across Bihar, the decimal figure is the safest one to compare.

Ask the anchal office or the amin for the katha used in your village before a sale or partition.

Multiply the two sides in feet and divide by 435.6. A plot of 25 ft by 35 ft is 875 sq ft, which is 2.0087 decimal, just over 2. A plot of 24 ft by 36 ft is 864 sq ft, or 1.9835 decimal, just under 2. When land is priced per dismil, the small gap matters, so keep two decimals.
