Land Area Unit Converter

This is the general land area converter — pick any two units, from gaj and bigha to marla, cent, guntha and acre, and get an instant conversion with the correct state-wise value where one applies. If you already know exactly which pair you need, our dedicated pages (bigha to acre in UP, katha to square feet, marla to square feet and more) skip straight to that conversion with a headline fact and a full reference table.

Questions people ask

Why do I need a dedicated Indian land area converter?

Generic unit converters treat 'bigha' or 'katha' as one fixed number, but these are traditional units standardised differently by each state's revenue system — a bigha in UP is roughly twice the size of a bigha in West Bengal. This tool applies the correct state-specific value instead of a single wrong average.

How many square feet in 1 gaj?

1 gaj = 9 sq ft, because a gaj is a square yard (3 ft × 3 ft). So 100 gaj = 900 sq ft — a fixed conversion that does not vary by state.

How many acres is 1 bigha?

It depends entirely on the state: about 0.62 acre in UP, 0.625 in Bihar, 0.625 (pucca) or 0.40 (kachha) in Rajasthan, and only about 0.33 acre in West Bengal. Select your state on this converter, or use our per-state bigha-to-acre pages directly.

What is 1 killa in acres?

1 killa (a term used in Punjab and Haryana) equals 1 acre exactly — the two terms refer to the same land measure in that region.

How many guntha in 1 acre?

40 guntha make up 1 acre, common in Maharashtra and Karnataka land records — 1 guntha itself is 1,089 sq ft.

Are these values official?

They are the values most commonly cited for each state's land records, cross-checked against widely published conversion references. Regional and even district-level practice can differ, so confirm the exact figure with your local land records office before relying on it for a transaction.
