A cent is a traditional unit of area measurement popular in southern Indian states, including Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka. One cent is defined as 1/100th of an acre, which is equal to 435.6 square feet or approximately 40.47 square meters. It is frequently used for measuring residential plots and small agricultural parcels.
A square meter (sq m) is a standard metric unit of area measurement. It is defined as the area of a square with sides measuring exactly one meter. It is the primary metric unit for real estate transactions in India, Europe, and globally under the International System of Units (SI). When buying apartments or commercial offices, property rates are often quoted per square meter, especially in official regulatory filings like RERA.
