INDIAN NUMBER SYSTEM
By:- Slide_maker4u
(Abhishek Sharma)
INTRODUCTION
 The Indian numbering
system is used in India as
well as
in Bangladesh, Nepal and
Pakistan. It is based on
the Vedic numbering
system in which numbers
over 9,999 are written in
two-digit groups (or a mix
of two- and three-digit
groups) rather than the
three-digit groups used in
most other parts of the
world. In Pakistan, this
system is used in Urdu and
other regional language
media, but not in English-
language media
 The terms lakh or lac (100,000 or
1,00,000 in the Indian system)
and crore (10,000,000 or
1,00,00,000 in the Indian
system)[1] are used in Indian
English to express large
numbers. For example, in India
150,000 rupees becomes 1.5 lakh
rupees, written as ₹1,50,000 or
INR 1,50,000, while 30,000,000
(thirty million) rupees becomes 3
crore rupees, written
as ₹3,00,00,000 with commas at
the thousand, lakh,
and crore levels, and
1,000,000,000 (one billion) rupees
(one hundred crore rupees) is
written ₹1,00,00,00,000.
USE OF SEPARATORS
 The Indian numbering
system
uses separators differe
ntly from the
international norm; in
such numbers of at
least one lakh (one
hundred thousand), a
comma divides every
two rather than every
three digits to the left
of the last three, thus:
 This accords with the
Indian numbering
system, which has
units for thousands,
hundreds of
thousands, tens of
millions, etc.
