Hectare
A hectare is a metric unit of area equal to 10,000 square metres. Its symbol is ha.
The hectare grew popular with the metric system because it matches land and farming scales well. Today it is widely used in agriculture, forestry, and land planning around the world.

Marla
A marla is a traditional unit of area used in South Asia, often for plots and property sizes. In this converter, we use the common Pakistan property standard 1 marla = 272.25 square feet.
Marla comes from older land measurement systems used during historical administrations in the region. Over time, different areas used slightly different marla sizes, so the exact value can depend on local standards.
- Residential plot sizes in housing societies
- Property buying and selling in marla-based markets
- Construction planning for homes and small buildings
- Land division and inheritance shares
- Real estate listings and marketing
Is this Conversion of Hectare To Marla Accurate?
Yes, for the defined standards used here. Our team uses the fixed metric definition 1 hectare = 10,000 m² and the widely used Pakistan standard 1 marla = 272.25 ft² = 25.29285264 m². This makes the conversion factor 1 hectare = 395.3686 marla, which is reliable for study, planning, and most property calculations.
Important note, marla can vary by region and sometimes by older local rules. If your land record uses a different marla size, your result will differ. For how we select and document standards, see our accuracy standards.
