How much is
US$ 1 Billion in
Crores?

7. Simple Answer:
Depends on Exchange rate!
If you know the Exchange Rate you can
quickly calculate it.
Here is the trick!

8. First, find out the Rupee to US$ exchange rate.
Second Divide the value of US$ in Indian rupees by 10.
For Example
If 1US$ = Rs 70, then after diving it by 10 it becomes 7.
If 1US$ = Rs 65, then after diving it by 10 it becomes 6.5.
If 1US$ = Rs 69, then after diving it by 10 it becomes 6.9.

9. Now just add “Thousand Crore” to the number you have got:
For example, when the number above is 7, it becomes Rs 7
Thousand crores.
Means US$ 1 Billion is 7000 crore.
For example, when the number above is 6.5, it becomes Rs 6500
crores.
Means US$ 1 Billion is 6500 crore.
For example, when the number above is 6.9, it becomes Rs 6900
crores.
Means US$ 1 Billion is 6900 crore.
