The bigha is a traditional unit of land measurement commonly used in countries like India, Nepal and Bangladesh, with its size varying significantly across regions. In northern India, one bigha is often equivalent to around 1,600 to 3,000 square meters, while in West Bengal, it may exceed 6,700 square meters. Despite its widespread use in rural areas, the bigha lacks standardization, making conversions to metric units essential for official land transactions.
The square meter (symbol: m2) is the SI unit of area, representing the space enclosed by a square with sides of 1 meter in length. Square meters are commonly used worldwide to measure the area of rooms, plots of land, and other two-dimensional spaces. To convert other units of area to square meters, such as square feet or acres, specific mathematical formulas or conversion factors are applied.
