Frequently Asked Questions

Textile measurement standards and pricing in Nepal

In traditional Nepali textile trade, 1 Gajj (गज) is exactly equal to 1 Yard, which is 36 inches, 3 feet, or approximately 0.9144 meters (91.44 cm). Conversely, 1 Meter equals approximately 1.0936 Gajj.
Centuries-old market custom in New Road, Ason, and Indra Chowk relies on the Gajj standard for unstitched suit pieces, cotton than (थान), and sari fabrics. However, modern garment factories and international imports order in meters, making rapid two-way conversion essential to avoid costing discrepancies.
Since 1 Meter is 1.0936 Gajj, multiply the price per Gajj by 1.0936 to find the price per Meter. For example, if suiting fabric is Rs. 500 per Gajj, the equivalent price is Rs. 546.80 per Meter.
For a standard adult men's shirt on 36-inch or 44-inch fabric width, tailors typically ask for 2.25 to 2.5 Gajj (approx. 2.05 to 2.28 meters). On wider 58-inch suiting fabric, 1.75 Gajj (approx. 1.6 meters) is usually sufficient.
Yes. ByaparOS supports multi-unit conversion and fractional decimal rolls, allowing you to purchase fabric rolls in Meters from mills and issue cut pieces in Gajj to local tailors without inventory drift.
