Gaj to square feet and square metre converter

In Noida, Ghaziabad and across north India plots are quoted in gaj, which is the same as a square yard: 9 square feet or 0.836 square metres. Builders, however, quote flats in square feet, so buyers constantly convert between the two.

How it is calculated

sq ft = gaj × 9, sq m = gaj × 0.836127, acre = sq ft ÷ 43,560. Gaj and square yard are identical in revenue records; "guz" in older Delhi documents is the same unit.

Worked example

A 50 gaj house in Sector 22 Noida sits on 450 sq ft (41.8 sq m) of land, roughly 21 ft × 21 ft. Built across G+2 floors it can carry about 1,100–1,200 sq ft of covered area after setbacks.
