Marla to Gaj Converter
Convert marla to gaj. Gaj is the square yard, so 1 marla is 30.25 gaj on the traditional standard or 25 gaj on the modern CDA standard — pick the one used in your area.
Quick answer: 10 marla = 302.5 gaj on the traditional standard (30.25 gaj per marla) or 250 gaj on the modern CDA standard (25 gaj per marla). Gaj means square yard, so gaj = marla × 30.25 (or × 25).
Marla and gaj are both used to quote land across North India and Pakistan. Gaj is simply the square yard (9 square feet). Because a marla is 272.25 sq ft on the traditional standard and 225 sq ft on the modern CDA standard, one marla works out to 30.25 gaj (traditional) or 25 gaj (modern). Enter your marla above and pick the standard for an exact figure.

Marla, gaj and square feet
Since 1 gaj = 9 square feet, the two standards come straight from the marla's size: 272.25 ÷ 9 = 30.25 gaj, and 225 ÷ 9 = 25 gaj. Twenty marla make one kanal, so a kanal is 605 gaj (traditional) or 500 gaj (modern). Always confirm which standard your city or revenue records use before a property deal.
