What is Gaj?

Gaj, or square yard, is a popular land measurement unit in North India, especially in Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, and Rajasthan. It has been used since ancient land measurement systems in India when it was a norm for dividing small pieces of land. One Gaj equals 9 square feet or 0.836 square metres. It is most commonly applied in property transactions, land surveys, and land records because it easily converts to other measurement systems.

What is Guntha?

Guntha is a traditional land measurement unit widely used in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat, and Andhra Pradesh. One Guntha measures 1,089 square feet, equivalent to 121 Gaj (square yards). Unlike Gaj, which is very popular for city plots, Guntha is more applicable for agricultural land and large land deals. State governments continue to use Guntha in land registration even today, and it continues to be a significant unit for property assessment in semi-urban and rural regions.
