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.

Bharatanatyam dancer from the world renowned institute Kalakshetra

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.

Dance professional tutor with 8 year's of experience in kathak from Asia's know institute Kathak Ken

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.
