Formula
Square yards = (marla × selected square feet per marla) ÷ 9
What this conversion means
Square yards and marla often appear together in property discussions. Because marla can be defined differently by scheme, this calculator lets you choose the standard before converting.
Use this conversion when a layout plan is stated in square yards but a listing is described in marla, or when checking whether two advertised plot sizes are actually comparable.
One square yard is exactly 9 square feet. The default marla is the Punjab revenue standard of 272.25 sq ft, which produces 30.25 sq yd.
