Hello @AKASH TH15. I am @Archer1234. I noticed your recent edit to Dasara (film) where you changed how the |budget= {{infobox film}} parameter was displayed and formatted (in particular, removing the use of {{INRConvert}}).
The Manual of Style (see MOS:CRORE) says this:
- Sometimes, the variety of English used in an article may suggest the use of a numbering system other than the Western thousands-based system. For example, the Indian numbering system is conventionally used for certain things (especially monetary amounts) in South Asian English. This is discouraged in Misplaced Pages articles by WP:Manual of Style § Opportunities for commonality.
- When it is done anyway, for contextually important reasons, link the first spelled-out instance of each quantity (e.g.
], which yields: crore). If no instances are spelled out, provide a note after the first instance, directing the reader to the article about the numbering system.- Provide a conversion to Western numbers for the first instance of each quantity (the templates
{{lakh}}and{{crore}}may be used for this purpose), and provide conversions for subsequent instances if they do not overwhelm the content of the article. For example, write three crore (thirty million). When converting a currency amount, use the exchange rate that applied at the time being written about; the{{INRConvert}}template can be used for this purpose.
Another editor has already restored the use of {{INRConvert}} for the |budget= parameter, but I wanted to explain further so that you understood. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me or ask at The Teahouse, where experienced editors are available to answer questions and provide advice.
