Gaj, also known as Guz or Gaz, is a traditional unit of area measurement commonly used in northern India, particularly in states like Delhi, Haryana, and Punjab. It is equivalent to one square yard or approximately 9 square feet.
Despite the official adoption of the metric system, Gaj remains prevalent in real estate and land transactions within these regions.
An Acre is a unit of area measurement used in the British Imperial and United States customary systems (Units of area used in the USA), equal to 43,560 square feet, or 4,840 square yards.
Historically, an acre was conceived as the area a yoke of oxen could plow in one day. Today, it is commonly used to measure large plots of land, particularly in agriculture and real estate.
If you have an area of 500 Gaj and want to convert it to Acres:
500 Gaj × 0.00021 Acre/Gaj = 0.105 Acres
Therefore, 500 Gaj is approximately equal to 0.105 Acres.
