Before you rely on the number

  • These are the values generally used in Patna. Older deeds and some other districts of Bihar can use a different kattha or bigha, so read the area exactly as written in your khatiyan, jamabandi and deed.
  • Government records (Bhu-Naksha, jamabandi) usually show area in decimal or acre; a seller usually quotes kattha and dhur. Convert both to sq ft and check that they match.
  • If the plot on the ground looks smaller than the papers, get it measured by an amin before you pay a token.
