How to convert Killa to Gaj
To convert killa to gaj, multiply the number of killa by the conversion factor 4,840, because 1 killa = 4,840 gaj. The conversion is linear, so the same factor works for any value — whole numbers, decimals or fractions. For the reverse direction, 1 gaj = 0.0002066116 killa, so you divide by 4,840 (or multiply by 0.0002066116) to turn gaj back into killa.
gaj = killa × 4,840 ·
killa = gaj × 0.0002066116
- Write down the value you want to convert, in killa.
- Multiply it by 4,840.
- The result is the same area/length/quantity expressed in gaj.

Killa vs Gaj: which is bigger?
A killa is the larger unit: one killa equals 4,840 gajs. Put another way, you need 4,840 gajs to make a single killa.
What is a Killa? History, origin and usage
Killa is the colloquial Punjab and Haryana name for an acre, and is synonymous with the ghumaon, an older term for land that a pair of oxen could plough. Its prominence grew through the killabandi system of British canal-colony settlement, in which large blocks were squared off and divided into one-acre killas.
Farmers and revenue records in Punjab, Haryana and parts of Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh routinely measure agricultural holdings in killa. One killa is treated as one acre for all practical purposes.
One killa equals one acre, which is 8 kanal or 160 marla, and 25 killa make one murabba. The grid of square killas you see in Punjab's farmland is a direct legacy of the killabandi land consolidation.
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 Killa to Gaj
- To go from killa to gaj, multiply by 4,840; to go back, divide by 4,840 (or multiply by 0.0002066116).
- For a quick mental estimate, remember that 1 killa ≈ 4,840 gaj, so 10 killa ≈ 48,400 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 Killa to Gaj converter
Type a number into the Killa 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 killa). 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 killa = 4,840 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 killa-to-gaj conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
