Dholera Land Unit Converter

Plot deals in Gujarat mix square yards, vighas, bighas and acres, and the regional units are not standard. This converter turns any unit into all the others, and is honest about which figures are exact and which are approximate.

Square yard, square metre, square foot, acre and hectare are standard, exact conversions. Vigha and bigha vary by district and are shown as common indicative values only; always confirm the local definition and the exact area on the 7/12 record for your survey number.

Standard versus regional units

Square yard, square metre, square foot, acre and hectare are internationally fixed, so those conversions are exact.

Vigha and bigha are regional and vary by district in Gujarat. We show common indicative values, but the only figure that matters legally is the area recorded on the 7/12 extract for your exact survey number.

Always transact and verify in the unit used on the official land record, and match it to the physical measurement before you pay.

Never accept a plot area quoted only in bigha or vigha without confirming it in square yards or square metres on the 7/12 record.

Frequently asked questions

How many square yards in a bigha in Gujarat?
It varies by district. A bigha is a regional unit with no single fixed value, so treat any bigha figure as approximate and confirm the exact area in square yards or metres on the 7/12 record.
What unit are Dholera plots sold in?
Usually square yards or square metres for plotted developments. Agricultural parcels are often quoted in bigha or vigha, which are regional and should be verified.
Which unit is legally reliable?
The area on the 7/12 (satbara) land record for the specific survey number. Everything else is a convenience conversion.
Is a vigha the same everywhere?
No. Like bigha, vigha differs by region. The value here is a common indicative figure only.
