About Gaj

Gaj is a traditional unit of measurement commonly used in South Asia, particularly in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, to measure land, fabric, and construction dimensions. It is equivalent to a square yard, with 1 gaj equal to 9 square feet or approximately 0.836 square meters.

Widely recognized in real estate, Gaj is used to describe small to medium-sized plots of land, especially in urban and semi-urban areas. The unit has its roots in historical measurement systems, where it was used to quantify lengths and areas, making it an integral part of regional trade and construction practices.
