Where the commas go

  1. Start from the right and mark off the last three digits — 000. That is the thousands group, and it is the only group of three the Indian format uses.
  2. Working leftwards from there, place a comma every two digits. Each one marks the next unit up — lakh, then crore, then arab — which is why the groups are pairs rather than triples. For 10000000 that means 3 commas in total, giving 1,00,00,000.
  3. The international format instead keeps three-digit groups the whole way up, giving 10,000,000. Same number, different punctuation.

Frequently asked questions

How is 10000000 written in the Indian number format?

1,00,00,000. The first comma sits three digits from the right, then one every two digits after that, which is what produces the 2-2-3 pattern instead of the international 3-3-3.

What is the difference between 1,00,00,000 and 10,000,000?

Nothing — they are the same number. 1,00,00,000 uses Indian grouping and reads One Crore; 10,000,000 uses international grouping and reads Ten Million. Only the comma positions and unit names differ.

Why does the Indian system group digits in twos?

Because its units advance every two digits after a thousand — lakh (10⁵), crore (10⁷), arab (10⁹), kharab (10¹¹). The commas mirror the units, so each group lines up with a name you can say out loud.

What is 10000000 in Hindi and Urdu?

In Hindi, एक करोड़. In Urdu, ایک کروڑ. Both use the Indian grouping shown above.
