About the killa
In Punjab and Haryana land that was settled and consolidated on the 66-inch karam, the standard field is a rectangle of 36 by 40 karam (198 by 220 ft). That rectangle is exactly one acre, and farmers call it a killa. A killa is 8 kanal or 160 marla, and 25 killa make a murabba.
Haryana’s revenue department also records an older killa from cooperative settlements: 4 bigha, or 40 by 40 karam with the older 57.157-inch karam. That killa is about 36,299 sq ft, roughly five sixths of an acre. It only matters for old records; land consolidated on the 66-inch karam uses the one-acre killa. Your land record or the patwari will confirm which applies.
