Last updated 2026-07-31 · Reviewed by Pakistan Calculator Editorial Team — Marla, Kanal, Killa, Murabba, and the Karam/Sarsai relationship are well-corroborated across independent sources. Bigha and Biswa absolute sizes are genuinely contested — sources disagree by more than 100x depending on whether they define Biswa as a fraction of Marla or a fraction of acre. This dataset uses the Kanal-linked convention (documented above) rather than treating either figure as universally correct.
