Dhakaiya Muslin sarees are usually described by thread count , not GSM, and historical Dhaka muslin is often reported in the range of about 800–1200 thread count. Sources also note that muslin classifications may start around 250+ thread count , but a single standard GSM figure for a Dhakaiya Muslin saree is not fixed because GSM varies with yarn thickness, weave, and finishing.

What that means

  • Lower GSM usually means a lighter, airier saree.
  • Higher GSM usually means a slightly heavier fabric, but not necessarily “better” for muslin.
  • For Dhakaiya Muslin, the more meaningful measure is fineness/thread count , not a universal GSM number.

Practical answer

If you need a rough estimate for buying or listing purposes, Dhakaiya Muslin sarees are generally considered very light-weight , often far lighter than regular cotton sarees, but the exact GSM can vary by piece and maker.
