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).
- Always confirm which standard appears on the allotment letter, fard or society file before buying or selling.
