1 Acre in Bigha Rajasthan: Pucca vs Kachha Bigha Conversion

Converting 1 acre into Bigha in Rajasthan depends on whether your local land revenue record uses Pucca Bigha or Kachha Bigha measurements. In Rajasthan revenue departments, 1 standard Pucca Bigha equals 27,225 square feet (3,025 square yards), meaning 1 acre equals approximately 1.6 Pucca Bighas (or 1 Bigha and 12 Biswas). Conversely, 1 Kachha Bigha equals 17,424 square feet, meaning 1 acre equals exactly 2.5 Kachha Bighas. Checking your official Jamabandi document confirms the applicable revenue unit.

Reading Jamabandi records and government schemes

In modern Rajasthan digital revenue records on the Apna Khata (e-Dharti) portal, land areas are increasingly shown in hectare-are notation (1 hectare = 10,000 square metres ≈ 2.471 acres ≈ 3.95 Pucca Bighas). Small and marginal farmers must verify their exact hectare acreage to claim input subsidies and PM-KISAN benefits.
