Land Measurement Units Explained

Land can be measured in international units (square meter, square foot, acre, hectare) or regional South Asian units (Marla, Kanal, Bigha, Ground, Cent). International units are standardized worldwide, while South Asian units vary by region and are commonly used for residential plots and agricultural land in Pakistan and India.

International vs South Asian Units

International units like square meters and acres have one fixed value everywhere. South Asian units are different — a Marla and Kanal are fairly standard across Pakistan and North India, but a Bigha varies significantly by region (e.g. roughly 3025 sq yd in Punjab Pakistan/UP, but about 1600 sq yd in West Bengal). This tool includes a region selector for Bigha to keep results accurate.

Area Conversion Formulas

1 Marla ≈ 272.25 sq ft | 1 Kanal = 20 Marla ≈ 5,445 sq ft | 1 Acre = 43,560 sq ft | 1 Hectare = 107,639 sq ft | 1 Ground (India) = 2,400 sq ft | 1 Cent (India) = 435.6 sq ft.

Common Plot Size Examples

  • 5 Marla plot ≈ 1,361 sq ft — a common small residential plot size in Pakistan.
  • 10 Marla plot ≈ 2,722 sq ft — a popular mid-size house plot.
  • 1 Kanal plot ≈ 5,445 sq ft — a common larger residential plot.
  • 1 Acre ≈ 8 Kanal ≈ 160 Marla — often used for agricultural land.
