1 acre = 40 guntha = 100 cents = 43,560 sq ft. 1 sq m = 10.7639 sq ft. Revenue records write “2 acres 10 guntha”, which is 2.25 acres, not 2.10. Where a document states an area, the document governs.

Why you will meet so many units

On the Sarjapur–Attibele side of Bengaluru, papers come from more than one system. A flat is sold in square feet. Its RERA filing is in square metres. The land under it is described in acres and guntha in Karnataka records, and in cents just across the border in Tamil Nadu.

The definitions used

  • 1 foot = 0.3048 m exactly, so 1 sq ft = 0.09290304 sq m.
  • 1 acre = 4,840 sq yards = 43,560 sq ft.
  • 1 acre = 40 guntha = 100 cents. These are customary, not set by statute.

If a document states an extent, the document governs, not a converted figure.
