All units (tap a value to copy)

* Regional units. Maund, seer and chhatak have no single worldwide value - they depend on the standard you select above.

The historic imperial maund standardised in 1833: 1 maund = 40 seer = 37.3242 kg, 1 seer = 80 tola = 0.9331 kg. Still the basis for grain and jute trade in much of India.

Nepal: Nepal does not use the maund/seer system - it uses dharni & pau, where 1 dharni ~= 2.39 kg and 1 pau (= dharni / 4) ~= 0.5975 kg. Convert via the gram/kg result above if you need a dharni equivalent.

Tola (11.6638 g), kilogram and gram are fixed in every standard. Always verify against your local bazaar or contract weight for trade.

Reference: how the units relate

1 maund (मन) = 40 seer

1 seer (सेर) = 16 chhatak

1 seer = 80 tola (British / Bangladesh)

1 chhatak (छटाँक) = 5 tola (British / Bangladesh)

1 tola (तोला) = 11.6638 g (fixed)

1 kg = 1000 g (fixed)

British / Bangladesh: 1 maund = 37.3242 kg

British / Bangladesh: 1 seer = 0.9331 kg

Pakistan: 1 maund = 40 kg

Pakistan: 1 (metric) seer = 1 kg

How It Works

Maund (mann), seer (ser) and chhatak are traditional bulk-weight units used across India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and beyond - but their exact value varies by region. This tool reduces everything to grams using the standard you choose, then converts cleanly into kilograms, grams, seer, chhatak and tola.

  1. 1
    Pick a regional standard
    Choose British Indian (1 maund = 37.3242 kg), Pakistan metric (1 maund = 40 kg), or Bangladesh. This sets the gram value of maund, seer and chhatak; tola, kg and gram stay fixed.
  2. 2
    Enter an amount and unit
    Type a quantity and select the unit you are converting from - maund, seer, chhatak, tola, kilogram or gram. Quick-amount chips (0.5, 1, 5, 10, 40) speed up common trade figures.
  3. 3
    Read every equivalent
    The headline shows kilograms, grams and seer instantly. The all-units grid lists every conversion - tap any value to copy it, or use Copy all for a full shareable summary.
  4. 4
    Check the regional caveat
    Because these units differ by region and bazaar, the amber note explains the active standard and Nepal's separate dharni/pau system so you can verify against your local contract.

Every conversion runs entirely in your browser using fixed arithmetic - no amounts, units or results are ever uploaded or stored.
