As well as the Indian version, perhaps you could look into an English version as against the American version.
Things diverge after one hundred with one hundred one OR one hundred AND one.
I'm sure that it is always AND after n00 or n00,000 where there any of those zeros have a value. So five hundred thousand and sixteen. There could be two and's seven hundred and eighty-six thousand four hundred and twenty-six.
