What does CRORE mean in Scrabble?
noun
Indian English
In the Indian numbering system, a unit equal to ten million, most often used when counting large sums of money or population.
A crore equals one hundred lakh, and together the two units form the basis of the Indian numbering system, which groups digits differently from the Western system of thousands and millions. Newspapers in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and other South Asian countries routinely report government budgets, company profits, and city populations in crore rather than in millions. Ten crore therefore equals one hundred million, and the word is written after the number, as in five crore rupees.
