For a cheque, choose PKR or INR as the currency above: 25,00,000 becomes "twenty-five lakh rupees". New to writing cheques? Read how to write the amount in words on a cheque. 1 lakh = 1,00,000 (one hundred thousand); 1 crore = 100 lakh = 1,00,00,000 (ten million); 1 arab = 100 crore.
Sawa Lakh, Dedh Lakh and Dhai Lakh in Words
In everyday Hindi and Urdu, amounts are often spoken as sawa (one and a quarter), dedh (one and a half), dhai (two and a half) and sadhe (and a half). On a cheque or in a document they are written as ordinary numbers and words:
| Spoken | Means | In numbers | In words |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sawa lakh | 1.25 lakh | 1,25,000 | One Lakh Twenty-five Thousand |
| Dedh lakh | 1.5 lakh | 1,50,000 | One Lakh Fifty Thousand |
| Dhai lakh | 2.5 lakh | 2,50,000 | Two Lakh Fifty Thousand |
| Sadhe teen lakh | 3.5 lakh | 3,50,000 | Three Lakh Fifty Thousand |
The same pattern works with crore: dedh crore is 1.5 crore, 1,50,00,000, One Crore Fifty Lakh. The converter above reads figures, so type the number (for example 125000) to get any other amount in words.
