Direct answer
Square Feet To Marla
Using the Punjab revenue standard, divide square feet by 272.25 to get marla. If your housing scheme uses 250 or 225 sq ft per marla, select that standard first.
Formula
Marla = square feet ÷ selected square-feet-per-marla standard
What this conversion means
A square-foot figure can produce a different marla result depending on the local convention. This converter makes that choice visible so the number is not presented as universally fixed.
Use it to translate site plans, covered-area documents and square-foot listings into the marla convention used by a local market or housing scheme.
The default 272.25 sq ft standard is tied to the Punjab revenue measurement documented in the Punjab Settlement Manual. Scheme-specific nominal plot sizes should be checked separately.

At 272.25 sq ft per marla, 1,000 sq ft is about 3.6731 marla. At a 250 sq ft standard it is 4 marla.
Is 225 square feet always 1 marla?

Which marla standard should I use?
Use the standard stated by the relevant land record, authority, approved layout plan or housing scheme. Do not choose a standard only because it produces the expected plot label.

Small differences usually come from rounding. AR Empires calculates with the underlying conversion factor and then formats the result for readability. For legal records, use the unit and precision required by the relevant authority or document.
