Gaj vs Guntha: which is bigger?
A guntha is the larger unit: one guntha equals 121 gajs. Put another way, you need 121 gajs to make a single guntha.
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.
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.

How to use this Gaj to Guntha converter
Type a number into the Gaj field and the equivalent in Guntha 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 Guntha field to convert the other way (guntha to gaj). 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 gaj = 0.008264463 guntha), 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 gaj-to-guntha conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
