India uses a variety of traditional land measurement units that vary by region. These are commonly used in property documents, and knowing the conversions is essential for buying or selling land.
1 Cent = 48.4 sq yards = 1/100 acre.
1 Gunta = 1,089 sq feet.
1 Kanal = 20 Marlas (Punjab/Haryana).
1 Kos β 2 km (ancient unit).
Bigha varies widely by state β always check locally.
| Unit | Equals |
|---|---|
| 1 Cent | 48.4 sq yards β 40.47 sq metres |
| 1 Gunta | 1,089 sq feet (= 121 sq yards) |
| 1 Kanal | 20 Marlas (North India) |
| 1 Acre | 40 Guntas = 4,840 sq yards |
| 1 Bigha (standard) | 1,600 sq yards (varies by state) |
| 2000 sq ft in Gaj | 1 Gaj = 1 sq yard, so 2000 sq ft = ~222 Gaj |
Land units are NOT uniform across India:
Always verify with local registration office.
1 cent = 48.4 square yards (approximately).
1 gunta = 1,089 square feet.
1 kanal = 20 marlas.
1 Gaj = 1 sq yard = 9 sq ft. So 2000 sq ft = 2000/9 β 222 Gaj.
