What comes below Aana?

Paisa, then Daam. The full ladder is Ropani → Aana → Paisa → Daam, each a fixed whole-number division of the one above, which is why land areas are written as four numbers rather than one decimal.

Why is my land written as four separate numbers?

Because the traditional system records the remainder at each level instead of rounding to a decimal — the notation keeps a plot's area exact all the way down to Daam.

Why people convert Ropani to Aana

Unlike most conversions here, this one stays inside a single system — Ropani and Aana are two steps of the same Ropani-Aana-Paisa-Daam ladder, so the relationship is an exact whole number rather than a ratio.

It matters because the two units are used at different stages of the same transaction: a holding is described in Ropani, but it is subdivided, priced, and often part-sold in Aana. Inheritance splits are where this bites hardest, since dividing a plot between heirs almost always produces a figure that has to be expressed in Aana, Paisa, and Daam rather than whole Ropani.
