Indian number system

The Indian number system is a numeral system used in India that includes unique terms for large values and follows a base-10 structure. It typically employs the Indian place value system, which groups digits in lakhs and crores, as opposed to the Western system that uses thousands and millions. For example, one lakh equals 100,000 and one crore equals 10 million. This system plays a significant role in commerce, education, and everyday counting in India.
