One hectare in acres and Bigha India

Hectare on government PDFs

Crop insurance, PM-KISAN eligibility caps, and MGNREGA pond excavation tenders cite hectare. Private deals still use acre or Bigha. Convert 1 ha → sq ft once, then sq ft → local Bigha with state selected — never multiply hectare by a cousin's memorised Bigha factor from another district.
