I think you mean Avartan. The Avartan is a musical cycle. It is composed of measures (Vibhag) which are in turn composed of beats. It can be of any no of beats.

Avartanam is nothing but a cycle of a talam. For example, if you take one avarta of adi talam it means 8 aksharas which include laghu to the count of 4 and 2 drutams.

That is avartan, and it is the rotation of a whole Taal and lay. For, e.g., teen taal has 16 Matra, and when you complete a cycle of 16 Matra, then it will end one avartan.
