How the lakh and crore converter works
What is a lakh?
A lakh is 100,000, or one hundred thousand. In India it is written 1,00,000, because the digits after the first three are grouped in twos. Ten lakh make one million.
What is a crore?
A crore is 10 million, or 100 lakh. It is written 1,00,00,000. One hundred crore make one billion.
How Indian number grouping works
India groups the last three digits together and every two digits after that, so 123,456,789 is written 12,34,56,789. Indian bank statements, salaries and property prices all use this format, often with the words lakh and crore.
Where the exchange rates come from
Pounds and dollars are converted at the mid-market rate, which is updated every hour. Providers add a markup to this rate, so slightly fewer rupees arrive when you send money.
