Since there is no standard measurement of this unit, it stands for different values according to which Indian state you are in. Apart from India, this unit is also used for land measurement in parts of Nepal and Bangladesh. The following table shows the value of Katha in different Indian states:

City/ State  Measure
Bihar (whole) 750 sq ft to 2,000 sq ft| 32 ft by 30 ft in length and breadth
