About this tool

Bangladeshi taka uses the lakh and crore names. Choose “Words in: Bangla” to see the amount as, for example, পঞ্চাশ হাজার টাকা মাত্র.

Poisha, the hundredth part of a taka, are added after the taka when the amount has decimals. The Bangla number names are written out in full, so check spelling on formal documents.

Examples

  • 150000 is “One Lakh Fifty Thousand Taka Only” in English.
  • The same amount in Bangla is “এক লক্ষ পঞ্চাশ হাজার টাকা মাত্র”.
  • দুই হাজার পাঁচশো টাকা পঞ্চাশ পয়সা মাত্র.

Tips

  • Amounts are rounded to two decimal places, as on a cheque.
  • Check that the words and the figures match before you sign.
  • Turn off “Only” if your form does not use it.
