In Karnataka (Bangalore, Mysore) and Maharashtra (Mumbai, Pune), agricultural plots are divided into Guntas and Acres. One Gunta is exactly 1,089 sq ft, which represents a plot measuring 33 feet by 33 feet. 40 Guntas make 1 standard Acre.
📍 Tamil Nadu & Kerala (Cent & Ground)
In Chennai and Tamil Nadu, residential real estate is traditionally transacted in Grounds (1 Ground = 2,400 sq ft). In rural and suburban areas, as well as Kerala and Andhra Pradesh, Cents are used (1 Cent = 435.6 sq ft).
📍 Delhi NCR, Punjab & Haryana (Gaj, Marla & Kanal)
In Delhi NCR and Uttar Pradesh, urban plots are sold in Gaj (1 Gaj = 1 Square Yard = 9 sq ft). In Punjab and Haryana, revenue records recognize Marlas (272.25 sq ft) and Kanals (20 Marlas = 5,445 sq ft).
📍 Andhra Pradesh & Rayalaseema (Ankanam)
In parts of southern Andhra Pradesh (especially Nellore and Tirupati), land is measured in Ankanams. One Ankanam equals 72 square feet (8 square yards).
