Rupee goes international: Journey of Indian currency since 1947 - The  Economic Times

In the United States, one billion equals 1,000 million. However, in India, one billion equals 100 crore. To convert one billion dollars into Indian rupees, we must utilize the current exchange rate between the US dollar (USD) and the Indian rupee (INR).

At the present exchange rate, 1 USD is roughly equal to 80 INR. Therefore, one billion USD would be:

1 billion USD = 1,000,000,000 USD = 1,000 million USD = 1,000 million * 80 INR (exchange rate) = 80,000 million INR = 80,000 crore INR

Hence, one billion dollars is equivalent to 80,000 crore Indian rupees.

It's essential to note that currency exchange rates fluctuate, so the exact conversion may vary. Additionally, in India, large numbers are often represented in terms of lakhs and crores, with one crore equal to 10 million. Understanding these conversions can help clarify the value of large amounts in different currencies.
