How to convert Guntha to Decimal

To convert guntha to decimal, multiply the number of guntha by the conversion factor 2.5, because 1 guntha = 2.5decimal. The conversion is linear, so the same factor works for any value — whole numbers, decimals or fractions. For the reverse direction, 1 decimal = 0.4guntha, so you divide by 2.5 (or multiply by 0.4) to turn decimal back into guntha.

decimal = guntha × 2.5  ·  guntha = decimal × 0.4

1. Write down the value you want to convert, in guntha.
2. Multiply it by 2.5.
3. The result is the same area/length/quantity expressed in decimal.

What is a Guntha? History, origin and usage

The guntha (also spelt gunta) is a traditional unit of western and southern India defined as one-fortieth of an acre. It is most often visualised as a square of about 33 feet by 33 feet, giving roughly 1,089 square feet.

It is the standard sub-acre unit in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, used for farmland and plots in revenue records and property deals. Holdings are commonly described as a number of acres and gunthas.

Forty guntha make one acre. The unit's near-square shape of about 33 by 33 feet makes it easy to picture as a single small field plot.

What is a Decimal? History, origin and usage

The decimal, also called satak or dismil, is a unit equal to one-hundredth of an acre that arose from British-era revenue surveys, which divided the acre into 100 equal parts. In Bengali-speaking areas it is satak, from shotangsho meaning 'hundredth part', the same idea that gives the unit its English name.

It is widely used across eastern India, especially Bihar, West Bengal, Odisha and Jharkhand, as well as in Bangladesh, for residential plots, agricultural land and government land records. Property advertisements and news reports in these regions still quote land in decimals.

One decimal is identical in size to one cent, both being one-hundredth of an acre (about 435.6 square feet). One hundred decimals therefore make exactly one acre.

How to use this Guntha to Decimal converter

Type a number into the Guntha field and the equivalent in Decimal 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 Decimal field to convert the other way (decimal to guntha). 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 guntha = 2.5decimal), 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 guntha-to-decimal 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.
