Murabba vs Gaj: which is bigger?
A murabba is the larger unit: one murabba equals 121,000 gajs. Put another way, you need 121,000 gajs to make a single murabba.
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'.
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 Murabba to Gaj
- To go from murabba to gaj, multiply by 121,000; to go back, divide by 121,000 (or multiply by 0.000008264463).
- For a quick mental estimate, remember that 1 murabba ≈ 121,000 gaj, so 10 murabba ≈ 1,210,000 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 Murabba to Gaj converter
Type a number into the Murabba 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 murabba). 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 murabba = 121,000 gaj), 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 murabba-to-gaj conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
