Dear Harsh,
Right-click on the cells which you want to display as lakhs, and click on *Format Cells**, *then go to the *Custom *category and enter the below formats: For Lakhs (+ve and -ve): With 2 decimals: [>99999]##\,##\,##0.00;[<-99999.99]-##\,##\,##0.00;##,##0.00 Without decimals: [>99999]##\,##\,##0;[<-99999.99]-##\,##\,##0;##,##0 For Lakhs and crores (+ve) [>9999999]##\,##\,##\,##0.00;[>99999]##\,##\,##0.00;##,##0.00 For Lakhs and crores (-ve) [<-9999999](##\,##\,##\,##0.00);[<-99999](##\,##\,##0.00);##,##0.00 There is an easier way to change the global settings from Settings > Control Panel > Regional Settings > Numbers, but that will affect all your Excel sheets and the change will be visible only on your system and not on your files which you send to others.
