Killa vs Murabba: which is bigger?
A murabba is the larger unit: one murabba equals 25 killas. Put another way, you need 25 killas to make a single murabba.
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 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 Killa to Murabba
- To go from killa to murabba, multiply by 0.04; to go back, divide by 0.04 (or multiply by 25).
- For a quick mental estimate, remember that 1 killa ≈ 0.04 murabba, so 10 killa ≈ 0.4 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 Killa to Murabba converter
Type a number into the Killa 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 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 = 0.04 murabba), 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-murabba conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
