Direct answer
Kanal To Marla
In the standard Punjab land-measure relationship, 1 kanal equals 20 marla. Multiply kanal by 20 to convert kanal to marla.
Formula
Marla = kanal × 20
What this conversion means
Kanal and marla are commonly used together for residential plots and larger land parcels in Pakistan. The ratio between the two stays 20 marla per kanal even when a housing scheme uses a different square-foot size for one marla.
Use this converter when a listing, allotment letter or land record states the area in kanal but you want to compare it with plot sizes advertised in marla.
The Punjab Settlement Manual records 20 marla per kanal. Scheme-specific marla sizes can change the square-foot area of a kanal, but not the 20-marla-per-kanal ratio used by this conversion.
