How Two NRI Brothers Left Their Jobs in North America to Change Land Transactions in India

It was a test of patience and trust for years to buy agricultural and farm lands in India.

Endless paperwork, unclear local terminology, unreliable middlemen, and confusing rules turned what should have been a simple process into a bureaucratic labyrinth. Investors hesitated, even experienced locals were left confused.

But two brothers—Lakhan and Om Tanwar—decided to challenge the status quo.

It Started With Frustration. It Ended in Innovation

Raised in a small Indian village, Lakhan and Om knew the rhythms of land, farming, and local customs intimately. After years working in the Construction and Real estate Industry across North America, they returned to India to buy agricultural land—a deeply personal investment for their father.

What They Encountered Was Shocking

“We knew the language, knew the culture—and even then, we struggled. We couldn’t trust brokers, couldn’t decode terms like bigha or pukka, and had no clarity on local laws,” Om recalls.

And that’s when 2Bigha was born.

2Bigha: India’s First Digital Agricultural Land Marketplace

2Bigha is quietly revolutionizing rural Real Estate. Built from the ground up with the user in mind, the platform enables buyers and sellers to connect directly with no brokerage fees, no delayed responses.

Here's what sets 2Bigha apart:

  1. Land Discovery Tool: Filter listings by location, price, type of land
  2. Legal Advisory Panel: On-call experts for paperwork & due diligence
  3. Verified Sellers Only: Background checks on verified property dealers and working on providing the agent certificate program.
  4. Regional Knowledge Hub: Learn local laws, terms, and restrictions
  5. Digitalization: All lands for sale or nearby lands are digitally markers

It’s not just a marketplace. It’s a full-service gateway designed for today’s investors and tomorrow’s farmers.

Why Now? Agricultural Land Is Stable, Valuable, and In Demand

Agricultural land, despite economic swings and geopolitical uncertainty, has remained one of the most resilient asset classes. With inventory down 20–25% from pandemic peaks and values holding firm, buyers are now looking for transparency more than ever.

According to industry reports:

  • Benchmark farmland values have risen 56.9% over the past five years
  • Investor interest in ag land is climbing steadily, driven by long-term appreciation

And 2Bigha is tapping into this demand.

Blending Local Wisdom with Smart Tech

The platform blends tradition with cutting-edge innovation. 2Bigha recommends optimal land parcels based on water availability, road access, and crop yield potential. GIS mapping displays boundaries in crystal-clear detail. Every listing comes with GPS coordinates, zoning compliance, and soil reports.

AI suggests land based on water, road access, and yield.

  • GIS mapping shows clear boundaries.
  • Listings include GPS, zoning, and soil data.
  • “We made it easy for buyers in Delhi or Chennai and sellers in Punjab or Bangalore.” – Lakhan

Sellers Get a Voice

In rural India, landowners have long relied on word-of-mouth and brokers to find buyers. 2Bigha flips the script. Sellers get direct access to a nationwide audience, support with listings, and a platform that treats them like stakeholders.

  • Sellers reach a national audience.
  • Easy listings and full support.
  • Sellers are treated as equal stakeholders.
  • Agents can list their properties

More Than a Marketplace

  • Track land value and development trends.
  • Get verified documents and boundaries—wherever you are.

Perfect for:

  • Urban buyers seeking rural roots.
  • Farmers connecting with buyers directly.
  • Discover land deals without brokerage fees.

A Platform Built on Trust, Transparency, and Seamless Process

At its core, 2Bigha isn’t just a business—it’s a movement.

It's not just about buying or selling, sometimes, it's also about staying informed. This platform lets you track how quickly a particular piece of land is growing in value and development.

Sometimes you might have access to local contacts or land documents, but what happens when you're overseas and interested in investing in agricultural land in India? That’s where 2Bigha comes in, we help you get accurate documentation, clear land boundaries, and verified details about land ownership, no matter where you are.
