Limitations to know

  • Regional land units (marla, kanal, guntha, cent, ground, feddan) use the definitions stated in their names; for those, the Land Area Converter explains each one. Bigha and katha are not included because their size changes from state to state.
  • Results are shown to up to 10 significant digits; extremely large or small values switch to scientific notation (e.g. 1.5e-12).

Privacy: Area Converter runs entirely in your web browser. Your Number data is not uploaded, stored or shared, and nothing about its contents is sent to analytics.
