Mathematical Metrology and Verification
Historical British colonial standardization fixed the tola at 180 troy grains (11.6638038 grams). The formula used for this conversion is: Masha = Tolas * 12. When evaluating jewelry in retail bazaars, verify whether your goldsmith calculates using pure net bullion weight or includes stone weight (kareegar cut).
