Maharashtra Land Calculator — Guntha, Are, Hectare & Acre Converter

Understanding Land Measurement in Maharashtra (7/12 Satbara)

Land administration in Maharashtra is governed by the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966. In official digital records (Mahabhulekh / Mahabhumi Portal), agricultural land ownership in the 7/12 Extract (सातबारा उतारा) and 8A records is recorded in Hectares (हेक्टर) and Are (आर).

However, in property registries, NA plot layouts, and agricultural sale deeds, the Guntha (गुंठा) and Acre (एकर) are the most widely understood and utilized units across the state.

By statutory definition: 1 Guntha equals 1,089 square feet (121 square yards or 33 ft × 33 ft), and 1 Acre equals exactly 40 Gunthas (43,560 square feet).

7/12 Land Unit System: Are, Hectare, Guntha & Acre

The metric 7/12 records correlate directly with traditional Guntha measures:

Guntha (गुंठा): 1 Guntha = 1,089 sq ft = 121 sq yd = 101.1714 sq m.
Are (आर): 1 Are = 100 sq m = 1,076.391 sq ft (approximately 0.9884 Guntha). On 7/12 extracts, areas are written in Hectare.Are format (e.g., 0.40 Hectare = 40 Are = approx 39.54 Gunthas).
Hectare (हेक्टर): 1 Hectare = 100 Are = 10,000 sq m = 2.47105 Acres = 98.842 Gunthas.
Acre (एकर): 1 Acre = 40 Gunthas = 43,560 sq ft = 4,046.856 sq m.
Aanewari / Anna (आणेवारी): 1/16th of a Guntha = 68.0625 sq ft = 6.3232 sq m.
