Common mistakes
- Confusing guntha with cent. 1 guntha is 1,089 sq ft but 1 cent is 435.6 sq ft.
- Using 100 guntha per acre. It is 40.
- Mixing the guntha with the "are". An are is 100 m² (about 1,076 sq ft), close to but not the same as a guntha (about 101.17 m²).
- Using the bigha or katha factor. Those differ by state, but a guntha does not.
