That doesn't mean its population density can't be higher per square mile. It just means that the city is smaller than one square mile. I can't find a direct source for Banupur, but Bally, which is nearby, works out to about 56,000 people per square mile (22,000/sq km), according to the town's official web page: http://howrah.gov.in/Templates/Area_popu.htm .

Yes, in 0.20 square miles making it the 28th most population-dense city.
