Learning about terms like Gaj and Square Feet is highly essential. Real estate works hand in hand with land measurement guidelines for property surveys. The available methods for measuring lands are diverse and vary according to the geographical location of the area. Selecting the appropriate method for calculating the land dimension depends upon several factors such as small-scale survey, standard measurement study, demography, agriculture coverage, and more. Land quantification is the cornerstone of deriving the exact property valuation and comparing it to other statistics. 

Investing in a productive asset comes with several features that widely control the future of the asset in terms of re-selling, putting on a lease, or renting. Today, real estate is undoubtedly one of the most significant investments in developing regions and correspondingly, it has become a form of measurable wealth. In rural areas, land measurements, especially in agriculture, have multiple pressing concerns today. Most of us are unaware of land unit conversion, which in turn, produces different results while quantifying property prices.

Understanding Gaj and Square Feet in land measurement

Considering India’s vast geography, property measurement units are different in each part of the country. Standard methods of measurement are also kept in view to follow the global measurement techniques. However, it can be confusing for regional buyers as they are adapted to local jargons such as Gaj, Bigha, Biswa, Square Feet, etc. Before venturing into real estate investments, you should become more familiar with the land measurements units in India.

It is not advisable to adhere to one or two particular measuring units as they can vary in terms of rates regionally. Therefore, let us proceed towards understanding some of the common methods of property measurement. 

One of the frequently used land measurement units is Square Feet (Sq. Ft.) because it is significant both nationally and internationally. Being the usual benchmark, Square Feet as a unit of measurement is a highly prevalent term in the real estate industry as per the Real Estate Regulatory Authority Act, India. It helps in measuring the dimension of a house, apartment or room. 

1 Sq. Ft. equals 0.09 square meter (or 0.3 metres square sides). It is very easy to calculate the room area using Square Feet unit where you have to multiply the:

Length X Breadth (in feet). 

Example: a room with dimensions: 20 ft X 20 ft will result in 400 Square Feet. 

In Square Feet calculations, you should remember the following:

  • every side is equivalent to 1 foot (lengthwise)
  • 1 square fathom works out to 36 Sq. Ft.
  • 1 Sq. Ft. is equivalent to 144 sq. inches. 

Gaj- the new Yard of the Indian Subcontinent 

Moving on to Gaj unit of measurement (also known as yard among the non-regional populace), it is one of the common forms of measurements specific to rural, semi-rural and semi-urban areas in India. Gaj is also pronounced as ‘guz’ or ‘Gajam’ in various parts of Tamil Nadu. 1 Gaj (also called Gaj square) is calculated during land measurement where it amounts to three feet (in length) and equals to 9 Sq. Ft.

Equating Gaj and Square Feet

If you wish to convert Square Feet to Gaj, where 1 Sq. Ft. is equal to 0.11 Gaj, you simply need to multiply the Square Feet value to 0.11. 

Example, 10 Sq. Ft. = 1.1 Gaj

100 Sq. Ft = 11.21 Gaj

Here is a small Gaj to Sq. Ft. conversion table for your reference:

Gaj Square Feet
  0.11 1
  0.22 2
  0.33 3
  0.44 4
  100  892

How can you visualize Square Feet? 

Now that you have understood the basic measurements of Gaj and Square Feet, let’s see how much area we are visually talking about when it comes to Square Feet:

The terms Square Feet or Gaj in real estate can confuse commoners who are unable to paint a proper picture of the area or space. However, some practical methods can help you visualize the room or apartment space using the rule of thumb.

  • Take a floor plan of 1000 Square Feet. A 1000 Square Feet area is a moderately big space with separate rooms. You can visualize it to have two separate bedrooms, a kitchen, two bathrooms, a hall, and a balcony. 
  • As for a 400 square ft. garage, it will have a typical large space of fitting in two cars.
  • 350 Sq. Ft. space will make a small studio room perfect for accommodating a single individual.
  • 850 Sq. Ft. is a decent size for an apartment, which can segment into two moderate-sized bedrooms, a kitchen will a small hall and one bathroom.
