The unit of measurement in the Indian system is the **shruti** (sometimes spelled šruti, sruti or shruthi), which corresponds roughly to a quarter-tone. There are 22 shrutis per octave, 13 per fifth and 9 per fourth. A size of 4 shruti for the major whole tone follows from that. The step sizes of the heptatonic scales ([[shadja grama]], [[madhyama grama]]) are given as sequences of 4, 3, and 2 shruti. | The unit of measurement in the Indian system is the **shruti** (sometimes spelled šruti, sruti or shruthi), which corresponds roughly to a quarter-tone.
