Bigha to Square Feet Converter
Enter bigha and choose the land convention before converting to square feet.
Examples
- 1 Assam bigha = 14,400 square feet
- 1 Rajasthan Shahjahani bigha = 27,225 square feet
- 1 Rajasthan Gantari bigha = 17,424 square feet
Why the answer changes
Bigha is a regional land measure. The Department of Land Resources records multiple conventions, including Rajasthan jarib measures, while the Assam revenue glossary gives a separate Assam value. Choose the convention used by the relevant land record.
Other spellings
In property listings and local land records, bigha may also be written as biga, bhiga, beega, beegha, or vigha. The spelling does not determine the area, so select the state or jarib convention used by the record.

FAQs
How many square feet are in one bigha?
It depends on the regional convention. This tool supports Assam at 14,400 square feet and Rajasthan Shahjahani and Gantari conventions at 27,225 and 17,424 square feet.
Why do I need to choose a state or convention?
Bigha is not a single national area unit. Choosing the convention prevents a misleading conversion.
