What is the difference between Revenue 272.25 sq ft Marla and Urban 225 sq ft Marla?

The Revenue/Patwari standard (272.25 sq ft per Marla) is the official legal standard maintained by the Board of Revenue in Punjab, Sindh, KPK, and Balochistan. It is based on 9 Sarsahi (where 1 Karam = 5.5 ft). Urban housing societies reduced the standard to 225 sq ft (15 ft × 15 ft) for easier grid planning. ConvertHub lets you toggle between both standards instantly.

How many Marlas and Kanals are in 1 Acre (Qilla / Killa) in Pakistan?

In Pakistan, 1 Acre (commonly called Qilla or Killa) equals 8 Kanals or 160 Marlas. Under the 272.25 sq ft standard, 1 Acre equals 43,560 square feet (4,840 square yards). Under the 225 sq ft society standard, 1 Acre equals 36,000 square feet. 1 Murabba equals 25 Acres or 200 Kanals.

What is a Sarsahi and Karam in Pakistani property measurement?

A Karam is a traditional linear unit used by Patwaris equal to 5.5 feet (66 inches). A Sarsahi is the area of 1 square Karam (5.5 ft × 5.5 ft = 30.25 sq ft). 9 Sarsahi equal 1 Marla in legal land revenue records.

How does the interactive Land Plot Dimension Visualizer work?

Enter the front width and length of your plot in feet (e.g. 30 ft × 50 ft). The visualizer automatically calculates the total area in square feet (1,500 sq ft), computes the exact Marla yield (6.67 Marla under 225 standard or 5.51 Marla under 272.25 standard), and displays an interactive diagram.

Pakistan Land Area Conversion Formula

Formula representation used for accurate calculations:

Square Feet = Marla × Standard Factor (225 sq ft, 272.25 sq ft, or 250 sq ft) 1 Kanal = 20 Marla | 1 Acre (Qilla) = 8 Kanal = 160 Marla | 1 Sq Yard (Gazz) = 9 Sq Ft

Calculation Example: 5 Marla (Urban Standard) = 5 × 225 = 1,125 sq ft (125 sq yards). 5 Marla (Patwari Standard) = 5 × 272.25 = 1,361.25 sq ft (151.25 sq yards).
