Understanding Pakistan's Land Measurement System

1 Marla = 272.25 square feet = 25.29 square meters. 1 Kanal = 20 Marla = 5,445 square feet. 1 Acre = 8 Kanal = 43,560 square feet. These measurements are standard across Punjab, KPK, and Islamabad. Sindh occasionally uses different area units in older records (like square yards), so always confirm the measurement unit when dealing with Sindh property transactions.

When comparing property prices: always convert to a common unit (typically price per Marla or per square foot) before comparing plots in different areas. A "5 Marla" plot at Rs. 5 million = Rs. 1 million per Marla = Rs. 3,673 per sqft. This per-unit cost is the only fair way to compare plots of different sizes across different developments.
