Calculation Info

The Square Kilometer To Bigha (Km² To Bigha) Converter is a handy tool designed to help you easily convert area measurements from square kilometers to bighas. This is especially useful for those working with land measurements in regions where both units are commonly used.

A square kilometer (Km²) is a metric unit of area equal to 1,000 meters by 1,000 meters, or 1,000,000 square meters. It is widely used to measure large areas such as cities, forests, and countries. One square kilometer equals 100 hectares or approximately 247.1 acres.

A bigha is a traditional unit of land measurement used in parts of India, Bangladesh, and Nepal. The size of a bigha varies by region, but in many parts of India, 1 bigha is approximately equal to 0.25 acres or about 0.33 acres in some regions. In terms of metric units, 1 bigha is roughly 1,500 to 2,500 square meters, depending on local standards.

To convert from square kilometers to bighas, you can use the following formula:
Bighas = Square Kilometers × Conversion Factor

The conversion factor depends on the regional definition of a bigha. For example, if 1 bigha is approximately 0.33 acres, then:

1 square kilometer = 247.1 acres
Bighas = 247.1 acres ÷ 0.33 acres ? 749 bighas

Therefore, to convert any value from Km² to bigha, multiply the area in square kilometers by the appropriate conversion factor based on your regional bigha measurement. This tool simplifies that process, providing quick and accurate conversions for your land measurement needs.
