To convert marlas to square yards, use square yards = marlas × 25. For example, 5 marla = 125 sq yd. This page uses 1 marla = 225 sq ft by default (LDA, DHA and most housing schemes); switch to 272.25 sq ft for revenue records.

Table uses 1 marla = 225 sq ft.

What are these units?

Marla (marla): A South Asian land unit. 225 sq ft in most Lahore housing schemes (LDA, DHA), 272.25 sq ft in revenue records.

Square yard (sq yd): Nine square feet. Called “square gaz” for plots in Pakistan and India.

Use cases in Pakistan

Area conversion is a property-dealing essential in Pakistan. A dealer may quote a plot as 10 marla while the registry or bank valuation states square feet, and housing schemes in Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad each define the marla slightly differently. The marla-size selector above the result covers the common standards: 225 sq ft in most societies, 250 in some, and 272.25 in revenue records. Match the option to your document before converting, especially for kanal and acre figures on official papers.

These are the tools people recommend to each other on WhatsApp — simple, free, no install — because they solve the small problems everyone hits: timing something, picking fairly, testing a device. Bookmark the ones you use; they age well.

Limitations

Square-unit factors are exact, but the marla and kanal are customary units whose size varies: 225 sq ft in most housing societies, 250 in some schemes, and 272.25 in revenue records. Always confirm which marla your document uses — the selector above the result lets you match it. For registered land transactions, rely on the official measurement in your registry papers, not a conversion.

Convenience tools are not certified instruments: fine for everyday purposes, but do not stake safety, money or legal outcomes on a browser utility. Know which category your use falls into.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert marlas to square yards?

square yards = marlas × 25. Example: 5 marla = 125 sq yd.

How many square yards are in one marla?

Exactly 25 sq yd. Both units have exact international definitions, so this factor is not rounded — any rounding you see is only in how many decimals are displayed.

Tap the swap button (⇄) above the result to reverse the direction instantly, or open the dedicated Square yard to Marla converter page.

Can I convert between other area units?

Yes. The From and To dropdowns list all 11 area units this converter knows — pick any pair, for example Marla to square meter or square yard to square yard.

How accurate is the result?

It uses the exact defined values of both units and displays up to 10 significant figures — far more precision than any ruler, scale or bill needs. The conversion itself introduces no error; only the displayed decimals are rounded.
