What is a Lessa? History, origin and usage
Lessa (also spelt lecha, locha or losha) is a small traditional land unit of Assam and neighbouring parts of north-east India. Its precise origin is not well recorded, but it long predates metrication and forms the base of the Assamese bigha-katha-lessa ladder.
It is used in Assam for fine measurement of small plots, where 20 lessa make one katha and, because the Assam bigha equals five katha, 100 lessa make one bigha. The unit was officially superseded by metric measures in the mid-20th century but survives in local land dealings.
One lessa is 144 square feet, a tidy 12-foot by 12-foot square. It can be subdivided further into still smaller traditional units such as powas and kanis.
What is a Square Metre? History, origin and usage
The square metre is the coherent SI derived unit of area, defined simply as the area of a square one metre on each side. It descends directly from the metre, which was introduced with the metric system in Revolutionary France in the 1790s.
It is the standard area unit worldwide for floor space, land, materials and scientific work, and is the base from which units like the hectare and square kilometre are built. Almost every country except a few uses the square metre for building and property area.
One square metre is about 10.76 square feet, and 10,000 square metres make one hectare. Its symbol, m squared, is the same in every language because it is a pure SI unit.

Tips for converting Lessa to Square Metre
- To go from lessa to square metre, multiply by 13.37804; to go back, divide by 13.37804 (or multiply by 0.07474938).
- For a quick mental estimate, remember that 1 lessa ≈ 13.37804 square metre, so 10 lessa ≈ 133.7804 square metre.
- The converter above keeps full precision; the tables round for readability, so use the tool for exact figures.
- Both fields update live as you type — change either side to convert in that direction.
How to use this Lessa to Square Metre converter
Type a number into the Lessa field and the equivalent in Square Metre appears instantly — there is no “convert” button to press and nothing is sent to a server, so it works offline once the page has loaded and is safe for any data. You can also type into the Square Metre field to convert the other way (square metre to lessa). Use the swap control to flip the two units, and copy the result with a single click. Because the calculation runs in your browser with full floating-point precision, the converter is more exact than the rounded figures shown in the reference chart above — use the chart for quick look-ups and the tool for precise work.
Accuracy and method
Every figure on this page — the formula, the worked examples, the conversion chart and the “convert to other units” tables — is computed from a single verified conversion factor (1 lessa = 13.37804 m²), never copied from a hand-typed lookup table that could drift. That factor is derived from each unit’s definition in terms of a common base unit, and an automated check re-verifies all of the site’s factors on every update, so the numbers here stay correct over time. This matters for lessa-to-square metre conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
