Land and area unit converter

The land and area converter changes a stated area between square feet, square metres, square yards, acres, hectares, cents, guntha and ground. It uses exact metric and imperial relationships plus explicit regional conventions. Developers should verify local units against the project deed; conversion does not determine carpet area, title or buildable space.

Your area

Uses square yard for gaj, 1/100 acre for cent, 1/40 acre for guntha and 2,400 sq ft for ground. Verify local usage against the deed. This changes units, not the legal area basis.

How it calculates

  • The international foot is exactly 0.3048 metres, so 1 sq ft = 0.09290304 sq m. One square yard (gaj here) = 9 sq ft.
  • One acre = 43,560 sq ft; one hectare = 10,000 sq m.
  • Conventions used: 1 cent = 1/100 acre = 435.6 sq ft; 1 guntha = 1/40 acre = 1,089 sq ft; 1 ground = 2,400 sq ft. Local usage can differ. Check the deed and relevant revenue authority.
  • Conversion = input area × source factor ÷ destination factor. Displayed results are rounded to eight decimal places; calculations retain unrounded factors.

International factors: NIST conversion reference. Regional units use the conventions stated above; confirm local usage with the relevant revenue authority.

Common questions

This tool uses square yard (9 sq ft) for the land-area convention called gaj. Gaj can also refer to length in other contexts, so verify what the document means.

Yes. The tool explicitly uses 2,400 sq ft per ground, 1/100 acre per cent and 1/40 acre per guntha. Confirm local usage before applying the result to a legal document.

No. Unit conversion changes the measurement unit, not the area definition. Use approved plans and the relevant carpet-area basis.
