Kanal to square feet in Himachal Pradesh: 66-inch Karam scale

The 1992 Land Records Manual documents a 66-inch Karam Kanal and Marla system (Part D) for parts of Solan, Una, Kangra and Hamirpur, where a Kanal is 5,445 square feet. It is a traditional settlement scale, not a current statewide default, and applies only to records using this Karam system.

Calculate using this scale

Where does this scale apply?

District alone does not determine the system. Match the scale to your land record; metric settlement records may use hectares directly.

Match the measurement scale on your registry or Jamabandi. A familiar unit name can represent different areas in different places.

How to convert

Area in square feet = amount in Kanal × 5445.

Example: 5 Kanal × 5445 = 27225 square feet.

To convert back, divide the number of square feet by 5445.
