How this unit converter works
Every unit is stored as a fixed multiple of one base unit (metre for length, kilogram for weight, litre for volume and so on). To convert, the tool changes your value into the base unit and then into the unit you picked. Temperature is the exception because Celsius, Fahrenheit and Kelvin start from different zero points, so it uses formulas instead of a single multiplier.
South Asian units used here
- Tola: 11.6638 g. 1 tola = 12 masha = 96 ratti.
- Masha: 0.9720 g. Ratti: 0.1215 g.
- Seer: 933.105 g, and maund = 40 seer = 37.3242 kg.
- Gaz: 1 yard = 0.9144 m. For plots and land, use the land area converter (marla, kanal, acre).
Tips
- Use the swap button to flip the conversion, and the decimal places box to round the answer for shopping or invoices.
- For gold, remember that purity (22k, 24k) changes the price but not the weight in tola.
- One electricity “unit” on your WAPDA or K-Electric bill is 1 kWh.
- Gallons: the US gallon (3.785 l) is smaller than the UK gallon (4.546 l). Check which one a label means.
The conversion factors follow the international definitions (for example 1 inch = 2.54 cm and 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg exactly).

Multiply the Celsius value by 9, divide by 5 and add 32. For example 37 °C is 37 × 9 ÷ 5 + 32 = 98.6 °F. To go back, subtract 32, multiply by 5 and divide by 9.
