  • Marla standard: 272.25 sq ft. Acre, hectare and murabba (25 acres) use fixed international sizes (1 acre = 43,560 sq ft).

Formula

Area in sq ft = Value × (sq ft per source unit)

Result = Area in sq ft ÷ (sq ft per target unit)

Every unit is converted through square feet. Marla and Kanal depend on the Marla standard; acre (43,560 sq ft), hectare (107,639 sq ft) and murabba (25 acres) are fixed.

Examples

  • 1 Kanal

    1 Kanal = 5,445 sq ft = 20 Marla

  • 1 Hectare

    1 Hectare = 107,639.1 sq ft = 395.37 Marla

  • 1 Murabba

    1 Murabba = 1,089,000 sq ft = 4,000 Marla

Important information

  • This calculator uses 1 Marla = 272.25 sq ft by default — the traditional revenue standard. You can switch to 250 or 225 sq ft, which some housing societies and development authorities use.
  • 1 Kanal is always 20 Marla, so the size of a Kanal changes with the Marla standard: 5,445 sq ft (272.25), 5,000 sq ft (250) or 4,500 sq ft (225).
  • 1 hectare = 2.471 acres = 10,000 m².

Frequently asked questions

How many acres are in a hectare?

1 hectare = 2.471 acres (19.77 Kanal at the revenue standard).

What is a murabba?

A murabba is a traditional block of 25 acres used in Punjab's canal colonies and land records.

How many square metres are in a Marla?

1 Marla (272.25 sq ft) = 25.29 m². A 225 sq ft Marla is 20.9 m².

Why do some people say 1 Marla is 225 square feet?

Many planned housing societies and development authorities define a Marla as 225 sq ft (so a Kanal is 4,500 sq ft). The traditional revenue standard used for agricultural land and land records is 272.25 sq ft. Both are in common use, so check the documents for the plot you are dealing with.
