Question: 1 acre how many ankanams?
Answer: An Ankanam is measured as 72 sq ft (6.7 m2), (mostly in the Nellore District) and, in some places (such as Tirupathi), 36 sq ft (3.3 m2). In Nellore, one acre equals 605 Ankanams, and 1 cent amounts to 6.05 Ankanams. This unit is very popular, presumably because it is easier to calculate the cost of a piece of land.
