Gunta to Acre Conversion – Formula, Quick Table, Examples & FAQ
40 Gunta = 1 Acre. So: Acres = Gunta ÷ 40 (or Gunta × 0.025). This is the standard land measure used in many Indian states (also written Guntha / Gunta / Guntaa). No approximation is needed—the factor is fixed.
1. Formula
Acres = Gunta ÷ 40 = Gunta × 0.025

3. Step‑by‑Step Example
Convert 125 Gunta to Acres
- Write formula: Acres = Gunta ÷ 40
- Insert value: Acres = 125 ÷ 40
- Compute: 125 ÷ 40 = 3.125
Answer: 125 Gunta = 3.125 Acres
4. Typical Uses
- Agri & plantation sale deeds (particularly in Karnataka, Telangana, Maharashtra)
- Bank valuation & mortgage documentation
- Subdivision / aggregation planning (clustered small holdings)
- Government scheme eligibility (area thresholds)
5. Accuracy & Tips
- Use four decimals (e.g., 0.1875 ac) in agreements; round later for summaries.
- Fractions: 7.5 Gunta = 7.5 × 0.025 = 0.1875 ac.
- Cross‑verify local record (RTC / 7/12 extract) for spelling variant “Guntha”.
- For composite holdings sum Gunta first, then convert once (reduces rounding error).

| 150 | 3.7500 | 3 + 3/4 |
7. FAQ
- Is 1 Gunta always 1/40 Acre? Yes in standard modern usage; legacy local variants existed but are rarely used officially now.
- Memory shortcut? Think “4 Gunta = 0.10 ac” then scale.
- Convert Acres back to Gunta? Multiply acres by 40.
- Why keep 4 decimals? Land value impacts even small area differences; avoid premature rounding.
Negotiation Tip: Add minor Gunta to reach round Acre targets only if price per Gunta stays proportional—recompute total with this tool before agreeing.
