How to convert Marla to Murabba

To convert marla to murabba, multiply the number of marla by the conversion factor 0.00025, because 1 marla = 0.00025murabba. The conversion is linear, so the same factor works for any value — whole numbers, decimals or fractions. For the reverse direction, 1 murabba = 4,000marla, so you divide by 0.00025 (or multiply by 4,000) to turn murabba back into marla.

murabba = marla × 0.00025  ·  marla = murabba × 4,000

  1. Write down the value you want to convert, in marla.
  2. Multiply it by 0.00025.
  3. The result is the same area/length/quantity expressed in murabba.

Marla vs Murabba: which is bigger?

1 marla1 murabba
Relative size of 1 Marla (marla) and 1 Murabba (murabba).

A murabba is the larger unit: one murabba equals 4,000 marlas. Put another way, you need 4,000 marlas to make a single murabba.

What is a Marla? History, origin and usage

The marla is a traditional unit of the Indian subcontinent that the British Raj standardised to one square rod (a rod, or pole, being 5.5 yards). That fixed it at 272.25 square feet, or 30.25 square yards, the value still used in Pakistan and Bangladesh.

Marla is most prominent in Pakistani Punjab and in the Indian states of Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir, where residential plots are sold in marlas and kanals. In India its use is gradually declining in favour of the square yard, square metre, acre and hectare.

Twenty marla make one kanal and 160 marla make one acre. In the Punjab survey system nine sarsahi (square karam) make exactly one marla.

What is a Murabba? History, origin and usage

Murabba is the Hindi and Urdu word for 'square', and as a land unit it dates to the British canal-colony schemes of late-19th and early-20th-century Punjab. Large irrigated tracts were laid out as rectangular 'squares' of 25 acres so they could be cleanly subdivided into 25 one-acre killas for allotment to settlers.

It is still used for large agricultural holdings and in rural revenue documents in Punjab and Haryana, in both India and Pakistan. A murabba represents a substantial farm rather than a residential plot.

One murabba equals 25 killa, which is 25 acres or about 10.1 hectares. Its internal 5-by-5 grid of killas is why it is also simply called a 'square'.

Tips for converting Marla to Murabba

  • To go from marla to murabba, multiply by 0.00025; to go back, divide by 0.00025 (or multiply by 4,000).
  • For a quick mental estimate, remember that 1 marla ≈ 0.00025 murabba, so 10 marla ≈ 0.0025 murabba.
  • 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 Marla to Murabba converter

Type a number into the Marla field and the equivalent in Murabba 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 Murabba field to convert the other way (murabba to marla). 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 marla = 0.00025murabba), 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 marla-to-murabba 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.
