The Indian numbering system uses the named numbers common between the long and short scales up to ten thousand. For larger values, it includes named numbers at each multiple of 100; including lakh (10 5 ) and crore (10 7 ).
The Indian system is decimal (base-10), same as in the West, and the first five orders of magnitude are named in a similar way: one (10 0), ten (10 1), one hundred (10 2), one thousand (10 3), and ten thousand (10 4). For higher powers of ten, naming diverges.
For powers of ten less than 9 (one, ten, hundred, thousand and million) the short and long scales are identical, but for larger powers of ten, the two systems differ in confusing ways. For identical names, the long scale grows by multiples of one million (10 6), whereas the short scale grows by multiples of one thousand (10 3).

The Hindu–Arabic system is designed for positional notation in a decimal system. In a more developed form, positional notation also uses a decimal marker (at first a mark over the ones digit but now more commonly a decimal point or a decimal comma which separates the ones place from the tenths place), and also a symbol for "these digits recur ad infinitum".
