How to display Currency in Indian Numbering Format in PHP?

Question

I have a question about formatting the Rupee currency (Indian Rupee - INR).

For example, numbers here are represented as:

1
10
100
1,000
10,000
1,00,000
10,00,000
1,00,00,000
10,00,00,000

Refer Indian Numbering System

I have to do with it PHP.

I have saw this question Displaying Currency in Indian Numbering Format. But couldn't able to get it for PHP my problem.

Update:

How to use money_format() in indian currency format?

Solution 1

You have so many options but money_format can do the trick for you.

Example:

$amount = '100000';
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_IN');
$amount = money_format('%!i', $amount);
echo $amount;

Output:

1,00,000.00

Note:

The function money_format() is only defined if the system has strfmon capabilities. For example, Windows does not, so money_format() is undefined in Windows.

Pure PHP Implementation - Works on any system:

$amount = '10000034000';
$amount = moneyFormatIndia( $amount );
echo $amount;

function moneyFormatIndia($num) {
    $explrestunits = "" ;
    if(strlen($num)>3) {
        $lastthree = substr($num, strlen($num)-3, strlen($num));
        $restunits = substr($num, 0, strlen($num)-3); // extracts the last three digits
        $restunits = (strlen($restunits)%2 == 1)?"0".$restunits:$restunits; // explodes the remaining digits in 2's formats, adds a zero in the beginning to maintain the 2's grouping.
        $expunit = str_split($restunits, 2);
        for($i=0; $i<sizeof($expunit); $i++) {
            // creates each of the 2's group and adds a comma to the end
            if($i==0) {
                $explrestunits .= (int)$expunit[$i].","; // if is first value , convert into integer
            } else {
                $explrestunits .= $expunit[$i].",";
            }
        }
        $thecash = $explrestunits.$lastthree;
    } else {
        $thecash = $num;
    }
    return $thecash; // writes the final format where $currency is the currency symbol.
}

Solution 2

$num = 1234567890.123;

$num = preg_replace("/(\d+?)(?=(\d\d)+(\d)(?!\d))(\.\d+)?/i", "$1,", $num);

echo $num;

// Input : 1234567890.123

// Output : 1,23,45,67,890.123


// Input : -1234567890.123

// Output : -1,23,45,67,890.123

Solution 3

echo 'Rs. '.IND_money_format(1234567890);

function IND_money_format($money){
    $len = strlen($money);
    $m = '';
    $money = strrev($money);
    for($i=0;$i<$len;$i++){
        if(( $i==3 || ($i>3 && ($i-1)%2==0) )&& $i!=$len){
            $m .=',';
        }
        $m .=$money[$i];
    }
    return strrev($m);
}

NOTE:: it is not tested on float values and it suitable for only Integer

Solution 4

The example you've linked is making use of the ICU libraries which are available with PHP in the intl Extension^­Docs:

$fmt = new NumberFormatter($locale = 'en_IN', NumberFormatter::CURRENCY);
echo $fmt->format(10000000000.1234)."\n"; # Rs 10,00,00,00,000.12

Or maybe better fitting in your case:

$fmt = new NumberFormatter($locale = 'en_IN', NumberFormatter::DECIMAL);
echo $fmt->format(10000000000)."\n"; # 10,00,00,00,000

Solution 5

Simply use below function to format in INR.

function amount_inr_format($amount) {
    $fmt = new \NumberFormatter($locale = 'en_IN', NumberFormatter::DECIMAL);
    return $fmt->format($amount);
}

Maybe here php.net/manual/en/function.money-format.php you can find the solution.

@lgomezma: How to use money_format() in indian currency format?

[Suraj Khanal]

The money_format() is deprecated in php 7.4, Please use NumberFormatter

[Somnath Muluk]

I have checked that. How to use money_format() in indian currency format?

[Somnath Muluk]

If using windows then use this function for money_format().

[Salman A]

You need to do something about numbers that contain decimals.

[hakre]

That works on windows, the example given has been actually run on windows, see PHP intl extension.

[Baba]

@Somnath Muluk that does not give accurate formatting when using locale with en_IN

[Somnath Muluk]

Is there any settings to remove zeros after zero if given number is whole number(other than round() function)?

[Baba]

substr_replace($string ,"",-1); that's the cheat i know ... @Somnath Muluk

[Somnath Muluk]

By doing settings to function money_format() isn't that possible? I don't want to use any hacky method.

[Baba]

What about a PURE PHP implementation using number_format ... see php.net/manual/fr/function.number-format.php

[Somnath Muluk]

But with moneyFormatIndia(), if number is '10000034000.45' then it gives '1,00,00,03,40,00,.45' with number format instead of giving '10,00,00,34,000.45'. If number is whole then I don't want numbers after decimal otherwise I want it.

[Somnath Muluk]

How to use intl Extension­Docs: library for codeigniter framework? I am unable to use this functions.

[hakre]

@SomnathMuluk: It's just PHP, you use it as-is. If it looks too complicated for you, wrap it into a function of it's own for starters.

[Somnath Muluk]

I have accepted answer, because it helped me to get towards solution.

[Anji]

Isn't question is for PHP?

[Sulthan Allaudeen]

Please give explanation to your answer. Code only answers are not appreciated.

[RN Kushwaha]

Poor function not working with decimals and negative.

[Saifur Rahman Mohsin]

Thanks. After spending over 40 mins trying to figure out why money_format did not work on my Ubuntu 14.04 instance running over nginx on Amazon’s AWS EC2, I settled with this for now. The usual money_format works great on my local homestead machine but couldn’t get the production copy to work. Here’s a gist using money_format and @Baba's code as a fallback for anyone who faces the same issue.

[Anon30]

As money_format() doesn't work on Windows. this works for me.

[Abasaheb Gaware]

this returns wrong output for 5 digit negative value. Ex. for -10000 it returns 0,10,000

[Abasaheb Gaware]

this returns wrong output for 5 digit negative value. Ex. for -10000 it returns -,10,000. solution for this is=> Add if condition like -> if($money[$i]!="-"){ $m .=','; }

[Butterfly]

@Baba This is excellent. But one small correction. just before $thecash = $explrestunits.$lastthree; we need to add one more line as $explrestunits = rtrim($explrestunits, ','); otherwise number shows as 88,43,46,.73

[Farveaz]

I think this should be the fallback method if LC_MONETARY fails.

[Madhur Bhaiya]

Even if on Linux, you might need to generate the en_IN locale using the following commands in succession: sudo locale-gen en_IN.UTF-8 and then sudo update-locale

[SuKu]

I am using Windows and linux hosting, this method works on both like charm, this is the best and shortest method possible for converting any number to INR format.

Second code giving issue for decimal numbers: 3v4l.org/vYuPC

[Gopipuli]

Thank you that works better, but if your number has decimal place and more than 3 after decimal it will give a wrong output, only we have to do is cut the left side of decimal then process and while return decimal result add right side of decimal to it. wonderful thank you very much for the function @Baba
