How it works
Flats are sold in square feet, land records often use square metres, hectares or acres, and plots are often quoted in square yards. These units have exact definitions, so the conversion is precise. Local units such as bigha, guntha or ground vary from state to state, so they are left out rather than given a single wrong value.
Formula
1 sq m = 10.7639104 sq ft; 1 sq yd = 9 sq ft; 1 acre = 43,560 sq ft; 1 hectare = 10,000 sq m
