How to write 14,500 on a cheque
Write "Rupees Fourteen thousand five hundred Only" on the amount line and draw a line after it; write 14,500/- in the box. Banks accept "and" or hyphens either way, but the words must match the figures exactly.
Why two spellings?
India groups digits in lakh (1,00,000) and crore (1,00,00,000) after the first thousand, so 14,500 reads "fourteen thousand five hundred". The international system groups in thousands, millions and billions, giving "fourteen thousand five hundred". Both mean the same amount.
