About bigha and biswa in UP
Unlike square feet, gaj, acres and hectares (which are fixed, standard units everywhere) bigha and biswa sizes vary by district in Uttar Pradesh. The figures above use the common convention for the Lucknow/Purvanchal region (1 bigha = 20 biswa = 27,225 sq ft, 1 biswa ≈ 1,361 sq ft). Some western UP districts (around Meerut, Muzaffarnagar, Bulandshahr) use a much smaller bigha, under a third of this size. We don't have confident district-level data for Kanpur specifically, so always confirm the local conversion with your tehsil/revenue office or a local surveyor before relying on it for a real transaction.
