    Custom Number Format to Divide or Multiply by Power of 10 adding Crs or Lacs in the format

    Dear Forum,

    I work around larger numbers such as 100 Crores which are as 123456789 , I want a Custom FOrmat where I can display these numbers as Ex: 100000000 = 10.00 i.e Number divided by power of 7 for Crs and Power of 5 for Lakhs.
    I dont know how to create a Number format which can display it as Crores or Lakhs. I would also like to add the word "Rs" in the beginning if its possible as well as Crs and Lakhs in the end .

    Warm Regards
    e4excel

    Use these custom formats

    For lakhs
    "Rs." #\.00, "lakhs"

    For crores
    "Rs." #\.0,, "crs"

    Also check this out which might prove useful

    Note: The cell value will remain the whole number

    THanks but it fails for this number 603486 which need to displayed as 0.60 instead it displays it as Rs. .1 Crs simply dividing the number 603486/10^7

    Oops..Try this for crs.
    "Rs." #0.00,, "crs"


    Also, if you want the display in lakhs as 0.60 instead of .60 use
    "Rs." #0\.00, "lakhs"

    I'm not entirely sure, but its do with the number of 0, at the end, each of which equates to 10^3.

    I can't seem to make it work for crs. with two decimal places if its more than 1 crore
