Some currency systems require a slightly different comma schema. With data like:

applying this Custom Number Format with decimal points:

[>=10000000]##\,##\,##\,##0;[>=100000] ##\,##\,##0;##,##0.00

There is a better and permanent solution (for Indian users):

Add Region as India and language as English(India). Then you can see the Indian comma format and Indian currency symbol inplace of dollar symbol. Default setting in US and English(US).

Go to Control panel > Region (search)

(tab) Format : Select English(India)

Click Laguage Preferences and add English(India) and move up to top.

Press OK
