India uses a mix of metric (SI) and traditional units depending on context. Real estate uses square feet and square yards alongside square metres. Agriculture uses acres and bighas. Gold is measured in grams and tolas. Temperature is Celsius but recipes often use Fahrenheit.
1 inch = 2.54 cm. 1 foot = 30.48 cm. 1 metre = 3.28 feet. Heights in India are commonly expressed in feet and inches (5'10") though official documents use cm. Property dimensions are often in feet while construction drawings use metres. 1 yard = 0.9144 metres.
1 kg = 2.205 pounds. 1 tola (gold measurement) = 11.66 grams. 1 maund (old Indian unit) = 37.3 kg. Body weight is expressed in kg in India. Gold is sold per gram or per 10 grams. 1 quintal = 100 kg (used in agriculture).
1 acre = 4,047 sq metres = 43,560 sq feet = 4,840 sq yards. 1 bigha varies by state (Bihar bigha = 2,500 sq yards, UP bigha = 2,756 sq yards). Property in Indian cities is most commonly measured in square feet. 1 ground (Tamil Nadu) = 2,400 sq feet. 1 cent = 435.6 sq feet (used in Kerala, Tamil Nadu).
°C to °F: multiply by 9/5 then add 32. Example: 37°C (body temp) = 98.6°F. °F to °C: subtract 32 then multiply by 5/9. Indian weather is reported in Celsius. US/UK recipes use Fahrenheit for oven temperatures (180°C = 356°F = common baking temp).
Convert between all major units of measurement: length (meters, feet, inches, cm, km, miles), weight (kg, grams, pounds, tonnes), temperature (Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin), area (sq ft, sq meters, acres, bigha, cents, guntha), and volume (liters, gallons, ml, cubic meters). Essential for construction, cooking, fitness, shopping, and scientific calculations.
India uses unique land measurement units that vary by state. 1 Acre = 40 Guntha = 4,840 sq yards = 4,047 sq meters. 1 Bigha varies by state: in UP/Bihar = 2,529 sq meters; in West Bengal = 1,338 sq meters; in Rajasthan = 1,618 sq meters. 1 Cent (used in South India) = 40.47 sq meters = 435.6 sq feet. Our converter handles all these regional variations for accurate land area calculations.
Cooking conversions: 1 cup = 240 ml, 1 tablespoon = 15 ml, 1 teaspoon = 5 ml. For specific ingredients: 1 cup sugar = 200 grams, 1 cup flour = 120-130 grams, 1 cup rice = 185 grams, 1 cup water = 240 grams. These vary because different ingredients have different densities — use weight measurements (grams) for baking accuracy.
