450 sq ft in gaj is exactly 50 gaj. One gaj is a square yard of 9 sq ft, and 450 ÷ 9 = 50, with nothing left over. In Hindi you may see this as 450 वर्ग फुट = 50 गज.
The 50 gaj plot
Plots of 50 gaj are common in dense colonies and small housing schemes. The usual shape is 15 ft by 30 ft. Other shapes with the same area:
- 18 ft by 25 ft
- 12.5 ft by 36 ft
- 10 ft by 45 ft, a very narrow plot
A 15 ft wide plot leaves room for one room and a stair across the front, so most 50 gaj houses go up rather than out.
Same area in other units
| Unit | 450 sq ft equals |
|---|---|
| Square meter | 41.8064 |
| Marla (Punjab, Haryana standard) | 1.6529 |
| Biswa, pucca (Uttar Pradesh, commonly used) | 0.3306 |
| Cent or decimal | 1.0331 |
| Chatak (West Bengal) | 10 |
In Kolkata, 450 sq ft is exactly 10 chatak, since a chatak is 45 sq ft.
Two common mistakes
- Dividing by 3 instead of 9. A gaj as a length is 3 ft, but as an area it is 3 ft × 3 ft = 9 sq ft. 450 ÷ 3 gives 150, which is wrong.
- Mixing carpet area with plot area. A flat of 450 sq ft carpet area does not mean you own 50 gaj of land.
