In Indian numbering, a unit equal to 10 million (used especially in India, Pakistan, and other South Asian countries).
From Sanskrit 'koti' meaning ten million. The Indian numbering system groups numbers by twos (10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, 1000000, 10000000) rather than threes.
India uses 'crores' and 'lakhs' (100,000) for large numbers instead of 'millions,' which makes sense given India's huge population—talking about problems affecting 'crores of people' is everyday language!
