Very good question I will give full details:

The traditional measurment of area of land in India is based on Yard (Gaj) and not in Meter it started from Gattha. Now see the Unit below:

1. Gattha is a measurment instrument (Bamboo stik or Iron Rod) used to measure mainly Agriculture Land and is equal to 99 inches.

2. The Land Area which is 1 Squire Gattha (1 Gattha Long X 1 Gattha Wide) is know as 1 Biswasi and equal to 7.5625 Squire Yard.

3. 20 Biswasi (20 Squire Gattha) is known as 1 Bissa and equal to 151.25 Squire Yard.

Now there is a confusion in Bigha. In East of UP 1 Bigha is equal to 20 Bissa which is also known as 1 Packka Bigha in West UP and Haryana and equal to 3 Bigha (Kacha Bigha)

3. 1 Pakka Bigha is equal to 20 Bissa which is equal to 3025 Squire Yard.

4. 1 Kachha Bigha is equal to 20/3 Bissa which is equal to 1008.33 Squire Yard.
