A note on regional units

Bigha, guntha, and similar units vary by state in India — this uses the most common conversion (1 bigha ≈ 27,225 sq ft, standard in much of North India; 1 guntha = 1,089 sq ft). Always confirm the local standard for legal or transaction purposes.

About the Land Area Calculator

The Land Area Calculator converts between acres, hectares, square feet, square metres and several regional units such as bigha and guntha. It helps with property deals, farm planning and reading old land records.

Metric and imperial units have fixed relationships, such as one acre equal to 43,560 square feet or about 4,047 square metres, and one hectare equal to 10,000 square metres. Regional units such as bigha, biswa and guntha are not standard: their size varies by state or region, so the value used here is a common reference and may differ from your local record.

How to use it

  1. Enter a value.
  2. Choose its unit.
  3. Read the equivalent in every other unit.
  4. Confirm regional units with your local land records.
