About these units
Crore (crore)
Ten million (10⁷), or one hundred lakh. Written 1,00,00,000 in the Indian numbering system.
Sanskrit had separate words for most powers of ten from 100 up to 10 to the 19th. The crore comes from one of them: the Prakrit kroḍi, which derives from the Sanskrit koṭi, and in Hindi and Urdu it is karoṛ. In Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam the cognate is kōṭi. Outside South Asia, koṭi travelled mostly through Buddhist texts, and in Indonesian and Malay keti means 100,000, a lakh, instead of ten million.
A crore is 100 lakh, or 10,000,000, and is written 1,00,00,000 in Indian grouping. It is the natural unit for large sums of money in India, Bangladesh and Pakistan, so 150,000,000 rupees is 15 crore rupees. For amounts in the trillions, the system's next named units, arab and kharab, are rarely used, so people say lakh crore for 10 to the 12th. Nepal and Sri Lanka both used the system in the past but have moved to international numbering in recent years.
1 crore = 10,000,000 pieces (exactly).

Trillion (short Scale) (T)
One thousand billion (10¹²) in the short scale used in English.
A trillion is a thousand billion, 10¹², and its name fits the short-scale pattern in which each new name multiplies by a thousand: million, billion, trillion, quadrillion. The prefix tri- is Latin for three, and in Jehan Adam's 1475 scheme trimillion meant the third power of a million, 10¹⁸. That is still the long-scale meaning of trillion, so the short-scale trillion equals the long-scale billion.
The SI prefix for 10¹² is tera-. Where the long scale is used, including continental Europe, French Canada, and the Spanish-speaking Americas, the same word names 10¹⁸. A trillion seconds is about 31,700 years. Trillions turn up in energy statistics: an explainer from the U.S. Energy Information Administration cites U.S. natural gas consumption of 32.51 trillion cubic feet, which it converts to 33.61 quads.
1 trillion (short scale) = 1,000,000,000,000 pieces (exactly).
