The Indian numbering system is used in all South Asian countries (Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan) to express large numbers. The terms lakh or 1,00,000 (one hundred thousand, written as 100,000 outside India) and crore or 1,00,00,000[1] (ten million written as 10,000,000 outside India) are the most commonly used terms in Indian English to express large numbers in the system, while Pakistani English groups the numbers in international format (10,000,000) but still using the same terms as India.
The Indian system
The Indian numbering system corresponds to the Western system for the zeroth through fourth powers of ten: one (100), ten (101), one hundred (102), one thousand (103), and ten thousand (104). For higher powers of ten, the names no longer correspond. In the Indian system, the next powers of ten are called one lakh, ten lakh, one crore, ten crore, one arab (or one hundred crore), and so on; there are new words for every second power of ten (105 + 2n): lakh (105), crore (107), arab (109), kharab (1011), etc. In the Western system, the next powers of ten are called one hundred thousand, one million, ten million, one hundred million, one billion (short scale)/one thousand million (long scale), and so on; in the short scale, there are new words for every third power of ten (103n): million (106), billion (109), trillion (1012), etc.
Written numbers differ in the placement of commas, grouping digits into powers of one hundred (102) in the Indian system (except for the first thousand), and into powers of one thousand (103) in the Western system. The Indian and most English systems both use the decimal point and the comma digit-separator, while some other languages and countries using the Western numbering system use the decimal comma and the thin space or point to group digits.[2]
There are terms for numbers larger than 1 crore as well, but these are not commonly used. These include 1 arab (equal to 100 crore or 1 billion (short scale)), 1 kharab (equal to 100 arab or 100 billion (short scale)), 1 nil (sometimes transliterated as neel; equal to 100 kharab or 10 trillion), 1 padma (equal to 100 nil or 1 quadrillion), 1 shankh (equal to 100 padma or 100 quadrillion), and 1 mahashankh (equal to 100 shankh or 10 quintillion). In common parlance, the thousand, lakh, and crore terminology (though inconsistent) repeats for larger numbers: thus 1,000,000,000,000 (one trillion) becomes 1 lakh crore, written as 10,00,00,00,00,000.
Examples
- lakh: 150,000 rupees in India is referred to as "1.5 lakh rupees", which is written as 1,50,000 rupees;
- crore: 30,000,000 (thirty million) rupees is referred to as "3 crore rupees", which is written as 3,00,00,000 rupees with commas at the thousand, lakh, and crore places.
Use of separators
The Indian numbering system uses separators differently from the international norm. Instead of grouping digits by threes as in the international system, the Indian numbering system groups the rightmost three digits together (until the hundreds place), and thereafter groups by sets of two digits.[3] One trillion would thus be written as 10,00,00,00,00,000 or 10 kharab (or one lakh crore). This makes the number convenient to read using the system's terminology. For example:
| Indian system | Indian system (words) | International system | International system (words) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5,00,000 | Five lakh |
500,000 | Five hundred thousand |
| 12,34,56,789 | Twelve crore thirty-four lakh fifty-six thousand seven hundred and eighty-nine | 123,456,789 | One hundred and twenty-three million four hundred and fifty-six thousand seven hundred and eighty-nine |
| 17,00,00,00,000 | Seventeen arab | 17,000,000,000 | Seventeen billion (short scale) |
| 6,78,90,00,00,00,00,000 | Six padma seventy-eight nil ninety kharab | 6,789,000,000,000,000 | Six quadrillion seven hundred and eighty nine trillion |
This accords with the Indian numbering system, which has units for thousands, hundreds of thousands, tens of millions, etc.
Names of numbers
The table below follows the short scale usage of one billion being one thousand million. In India, Bangladesh and Pakistan, following former British usage, the long scale was used, with one billion equivalent to one million million.

Historic numbering systems
Numbering systems in Hindu epics
There are various systems of numeration found in various ancient epic literature of India (itihasas). The following table gives one such system used in the Valmiki Ramayana.[5]
| Name | Indian notation | Power notation | Indian system | Short scale Western |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| एक (ēka) | 1 | 100 | One | One |
| दश (daśa) | 10 | 101 | Ten | Ten |
| शत (śata) | 100 | 102 | One hundred | One hundred |
| सहस्र (sahasra) | 1,000 | 103 | One thousand | One thousand |
| लक्ष (lakṣa) | 1,00,000 | 105 | One lakh | One hundred thousand |
| कोटि (kōṭi) |
1,00,000 śata | 107 | One crore | Ten million |
| शङ्कु (śaṅku) | 1,00,000 koṭi | 1012 | Ten kharab or One lakh crore | One trillion |
| महाशङ्कु (mahāśaṅku) | 1,00,000 śaṅku | 1017 | One shankh or One thousand crore crore | One hundred quadrillion |
| वृन्द (vr̥nda) | 1,00,000 mahāśaṅku | 1022 | Ten sextillion (ten trilliard) | |
| महावृन्द (mahāvr̥nda) | 1,00,000 vr̥nda | 1027 | One octillion | |
| पद्म (padma) | 1,00,000 mahāvr̥nda | 1032 | One hundred nonillion | |
| महापद्म (mahāpadma) | 1,00,000 padma | 1037 | Ten undecillion | |
| खर्व (kharva) | 1,00,000 mahāpadma | 1042 | One tredecillion | |
| महाखर्व (mahākharva) | 1,00,000 kharva | 1047 | One hundred quattuordecillion | |
| समुद्र (samudra) | 1,00,000 mahākharva | 1052 | Ten sexdecillion | |
| ओघ (ogha) | 1,00,000 samudra | 1057 | One octodecillion | |
| महौघ (mahaugha) | 1,00,000 ogha | 1062 | One hundred novemdecillion |
Other numbering systems
The denominations by which land was measured in the Kumaon Kingdom were based on arable lands and thus followed an approximate system with local variations. The most common of these was a vigesimal (base-20) numbering system with the main denomination called a bisi (see Hindustani number bīs), which corresponded to the land required to sow 20 nalis of seed. Consequently, its actual land measure varied based on the quality of the soil.[6] This system became the established norm in Kumaon by 1891.[7]

Formal written publications in English in India tend to use lakh/crore for Indian currency and International numbering for foreign currencies.[8]
目前的使用情況
這種計數方法僅限於在印度、巴基斯坦、孟加拉國和緬甸使用。在這些國家，這種計數方法比西方的千位分隔計數法更受歡迎。[9]
斯里蘭卡曾經使用這套系統，但今年來也開始改用千位分隔計數法。
馬爾代夫的當地人和官方文書會使用拉克一詞，而更大的數位則會使用英語的「million」（百萬）等詞。
印度的多數學會、市民會使用印度式計數法，而印度儲備銀行是一個少有的例外。[10]
