The bigha (Bengali: Nepaliबीघा) is a unit of measurement of area of a land, commonly used in Nepal, Bangladesh and in a few states of India like West Bengal, Assam,Gujarat etc. The precise size of a bigha appears to vary considerably. Sources have given measurements that range from 1,500 to 6,771 square meters:
The bigha varies in size in South Asia
A traditional unit of land area in South Asia. The bigha varies in size from region to another; in India it is generally less than an acre (0.4 hectare). In Bengal (both in Bangladesh and in West Bengal, India) the bigha was standardized under British colonial rule at 1600 square yards (0.1338 hectare or 0.3306 acre); this is often interpreted as being 1/3 acre (it is precisely 40⁄121 acre). In central India bighas were standardized at 3025 square yards or 5/8 acre (0.2529 hectare). In Nepal the bigha equals about 0.677 hectare (1.67 acres). The bigha was divided into 20 katthas, and each kattha contained 20 dhurs.

1 Acre = 100 Decimals
1 Bigha = 33 Decimals
Use in Nepal
In Nepal, where a bigha is about 2,603.7 square meters. Officially, most measurement of lands use units of either bigha (in Terai region) or ropani (Nepali: रोपनी) (in Hilly regions). Metric system is very seldom used officially in measuring area of Land.
Measurement of area in terms of bigha
1 bigha = 20 kattha (about 2,603.7 m²)
1 kattha ( कठ्ठा) = 20 dhur (धुर)(about 130.19 m²)
1 bigha = 13.9 ropani
1 ropani = 16 aana (आना) (about 508.72 m²)
1 aana = 4 paisa (पैसा) (about 31.80 m²)
1 paisa = 4 daam (दाम) (7.95 m²)
For a different ropani from the one above
30 ropani = 1 hectare
1 ropani = 333ยจรท m²
Use in India
In Rajasthan, India, a bigha equals 2500 square metres. In Bengal, India, a bigha equals 1333.33 m². In Assam, India, a bigha is 14,400 square feet (1337.8 m²) or 5 katha; One katha = 2,880 sq ft (267.56 m²). In Gujarat, India, a bigha equals 2327 square meters (25,050 sq ft). In Bihar, India, 1 kattha = 720 Sq Feet. In patna, Bihar, one Kattha is of 1361 Sq. feet. One Bigha is of 20 Katthas. Use in Fiji
