Understanding Bigha and Gaj
**Bigha (बीघा)** and **Gaj (गज)** are traditional units of land measurement predominantly used in various parts of India, especially in the northern states. However, unlike standardized units like square meters or acres, the exact size of a Bigha can vary significantly from one region (or even district) to another.
A **Gaj** is generally understood to be equivalent to a **Square Yard**. Therefore, 1 Gaj = 9 Square Feet ($3 \text{ feet} \times 3 \text{ feet}$). This unit is relatively more consistent across regions.
The variation in **Bigha** makes accurate land conversion challenging. For instance:
- In **Uttar Pradesh and Bihar**, a "Pucca Bigha" is commonly equivalent to 3025 Square Gaj (or 27,225 sq ft).
- In **Punjab and Haryana**, a Bigha is often smaller, around 1008.33 Square Gaj (or 9,075 sq ft).
- **Rajasthan** typically uses a Bigha similar to the Pucca Bigha (3025 Square Gaj).
- In **Gujarat**, a "Vigha" might be around 1936 Square Gaj (or 17,424 sq ft).
- **Himachal Pradesh** can have Bigha as small as 968 Square Gaj (or 8,712 sq ft).
**Important Note:** Due to these regional differences, it is crucial to verify the specific Bigha definition used in your local area. Our tool provides common presets, but for legal or financial transactions, always confirm the precise conversion factor applicable to your location or property documents. Use the "Custom" option if your specific factor is known.
