How to write 28,000 on a cheque
Write "Rupees Twenty-eight thousand Only" on the amount line and draw a line after it; write 28,000/- 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 28,000 reads "twenty-eight thousand". The international system groups in thousands, millions and billions, giving "twenty-eight thousand". Both mean the same amount.
