Quick answer: Ground to Gaj
1 Ground = 266.6667Gaj (ground → gaj). To convert ground to gaj, multiply by 266.6667. To convert gaj to ground, multiply by 0.00375. The converter at the top does this instantly and both ways; the sections below give the formula, worked examples, a full conversion chart and answers to the most common ground-to-gaj questions.
How to convert Ground to Gaj
To convert ground to gaj, multiply the number of ground by the conversion factor 266.6667, because 1 ground = 266.6667gaj. The conversion is linear, so the same factor works for any value — whole numbers, decimals or fractions. For the reverse direction, 1 gaj = 0.00375ground, so you divide by 266.6667 (or multiply by 0.00375) to turn gaj back into ground.
gaj = ground × 266.6667 ·
ground = gaj × 0.00375
- Write down the value you want to convert, in ground.
- Multiply it by 266.6667.
- The result is the same area/length/quantity expressed in gaj.

Ground vs Gaj: which is bigger?
A ground is the larger unit: one ground equals 266.6667 gajs. Put another way, you need 266.6667 gajs to make a single ground.
What is a Ground? History, origin and usage
The ground is a South Indian land unit conventionally taken as 2,400 square feet. It is a traditional local measure whose detailed origins are not well documented, and it is gradually being phased out since metrication.
It is best known in Tamil Nadu, and especially in Chennai property listings, where plot and house sizes are frequently quoted in grounds. Despite the spread of the square foot, it remains common in everyday real-estate parlance in the region.
One ground is about 2,400 square feet, or roughly 223 square metres, close to a 40-by-60-foot plot. A little under 18.2 grounds make one acre.
What is a Gaj? History, origin and usage
As a land unit the gaj is simply a square gaj, the gaj (or gaz) being the South Asian yard. The word descends from the Classical Persian gaz, a yard-like length carried into Hindustani during the Mughal era, when Emperor Akbar standardised an Ilahi gaz of about 33 inches around 1584. It is unrelated to the identical-sounding Hindi word gaj meaning elephant.
Gaj is the everyday unit for plots, houses and carpet area across North India, especially Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan, where listings routinely quote a plot as so many gaj. It is functionally the square yard, so it sits between the square foot and larger units like the bigha or acre.
One gaj equals one square yard, which is nine square feet, so a 100-gaj plot is 900 square feet. The same word for the linear yard also gives Indian roads their old milestone measurements.

Tips for converting Ground to Gaj
- To go from ground to gaj, multiply by 266.6667; to go back, divide by 266.6667 (or multiply by 0.00375).
- For a quick mental estimate, remember that 1 ground ≈ 266.6667 gaj, so 10 ground ≈ 2,666.667 gaj.
- The converter above keeps full precision; the tables round for readability, so use the tool for exact figures.
- Both fields update live as you type — change either side to convert in that direction.
How to use this Ground to Gaj converter
Type a number into the Ground field and the equivalent in Gaj appears instantly — there is no “convert” button to press and nothing is sent to a server, so it works offline once the page has loaded and is safe for any data. You can also type into the Gaj field to convert the other way (gaj to ground). Use the swap control to flip the two units, and copy the result with a single click. Because the calculation runs in your browser with full floating-point precision, the converter is more exact than the rounded figures shown in the reference chart above — use the chart for quick look-ups and the tool for precise work.
Accuracy and method
Every figure on this page — the formula, the worked examples, the conversion chart and the “convert to other units” tables — is computed from a single verified conversion factor (1 ground = 266.6667gaj), never copied from a hand-typed lookup table that could drift. That factor is derived from each unit’s definition in terms of a common base unit, and an automated check re-verifies all of the site’s factors on every update, so the numbers here stay correct over time. This matters for ground-to-gaj conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
Indian land units can vary by state and local custom. This converter uses the most widely accepted standard value; always confirm against your local revenue records (patwari / tehsil) for legal transactions.
Frequently asked questions
- How many gaj are in 1 ground?
- 1 ground = 266.6667 gaj (gaj). To convert any number of ground to gaj, multiply by 266.6667.
- How do I convert ground to gaj?
- Multiply the number of ground by 266.6667. For example, 10 ground = 10 × 266.6667 = 2,666.667 gaj, and 25 ground = 6,666.667 gaj.
- How many ground are in 1 gaj?
- 1 gaj = 0.00375 ground. So to convert gaj back to ground, multiply by 0.00375.
- What is the formula to convert ground to gaj?
- gaj = ground × 266.6667. The reverse formula is ground = gaj × 0.00375.
- How much is 100 ground in gaj?
- 100 ground = 26,666.67 gaj. (And 1000 ground = 266,666.7 gaj.)
- Which is bigger, a ground or a gaj?
- A ground is larger: 1 ground = 266.6667 gaj.
- Is this ground to gaj converter accurate?
- Yes — every value is computed from the exact 266.6667 gaj per ground factor (not rounded look-up tables), and the factors are re-verified automatically on every update.
- Can I convert gaj to ground too?
- Yes. The converter works both ways — enter a value in either field. 1 gaj = 0.00375 ground.
