If the space you are purchasing is a perfect square, then measuring one wall will give you the result of the area in Square Feet. But most of the time, we get a space that is a complicated structure. This is when it becomes difficult to find out the area in Square Feet. But if you are well acquainted with the mathematical formulas of deriving areas of different geometric patterns, it becomes easier for you to measure.

What is Katha?

Katha is a customary land measurement unit that is officially out-of-date after the metrication in the mid 20th century. The measurement unit Katha has its origin during the Pala Empire. However, the unit is still in use in various parts of Eastern India, Nepal, and Bangladesh. Since Katha is a local land measurement unity, it doesn’t have any official symbol or short form.

When dealing with local people who are oblivious of the standardized land measurement units, real estate agents have to convert the standard land measurement units into their local ones.

For example, a housing property is measured in terms of Square Feet, but to make sure that it is understandable by the locals of Bihar or West Bengal, or Assam, he needs to convert Square Feet to Katha. In case the agent doesn’t convert it, the people buying the land themselves have to convert the units. Hence, knowing the conversion process is critical.

Now that you are aware of this unit and its significance, let’s find out where it is used and for what purposes.

Current Use of Katha

Katha is currently used in parts of Bihar, West Bengal, and Assam in India. Moreover, it is a local land measurement unit in Nepal and Bangladesh.

Now, you may ask a question that if it is difficult for us to remember the values of Katha in Square Feet or the opposite, then how can we calculate? Don’t worry, these calculators provide you with information on the value of a unit in the particular location you are searching for. So, carry out the conversion accordingly.

The Formula for Converting Square Feet to Katha

1 Square foot is equivalent to 0.000735 Katha. As it is an approximate value, we have rounded it to six decimal places. While making calculations, you can round off the value according to your wish.

To find out an area in Katha that was previously measured in Square Feet, we need to follow the formula –

Katha =  total area of the land measured in Square Feet × 0.000735.

Let us consider a few examples-

Example 1: 1200 Square Feet in Katha

Sol: Following the above formula, we can convert 1200 sq ft in Katha.

Therefore, 1200 sq ft in Katha = 1200 x 0.000735 = 0.882 Katha.

Example 2: 500 Square Feet in Katha

Sol: Similar to above, 500 Sq Ft in Katha = 500 x 0.000735 = 0.3675 Katha.

Example 3: 1000 Square Feet in Kattha

Sol: Putting the value of Square Feet in the following equation:

Katha =  total area of the land measured in Square Feet × 0.000735.

We can derive the value of 1000 Sq Ft in Katha as

Katha = 1000 x 0.000735

Therefore, 1000 Sq Ft in Katha is equivalent to 0.735.
