Direct answer
Kanal To Square Yard
Under the Punjab revenue standard, 1 kanal equals 5,445 square feet or 605 square yards. Scheme-based marla standards can produce a different square-yard area.
Formula
Square yards = (kanal × 20 × selected square feet per marla) ÷ 9
What this conversion means
Kanal is common for larger plots in Pakistan, while square yards are often used on plans and in other South Asian markets. Select the correct marla standard before comparing plot areas.
Use this converter to compare one-kanal and multi-kanal plots with documents or listings stated in square yards.
At 272.25 sq ft per marla and 20 marla per kanal, one kanal is 5,445 sq ft. Dividing by 9 gives 605 square yards.
