Frequently Asked Questions

Unlike modern SI units, traditional Indian land units evolved from regional revenue collection systems — the Mughal Jarib, British provincial settlements, and local princely state customs. Each state standardizes traditional units according to its own revenue codes, and values can differ even between districts within the same state. In West Bengal, 1 Bigha equals 14,400 sq ft; in Assam, two government sources conflict on the Bigha value; in UP and Bihar, district-specific revenue circles define different values. Always select your specific state and verify against your local land record (Khasra, Khatauni, or sale deed).
