  Is your system set to Indian regional settings?  If so then you should just let the system handle the formatting automatically:

  myDecimal.ToString("c")

  That will create a String in the local currency format.  Note that the "c" is the standard format string for currency.
  
  

  If you want to use a format other than the local one then you need a NumberFormatInfo object with its currency-related properties set appropriately.  To do this you have two choices:

  1. Create a CultureInfo object for the appropriate culture and use its NumberFormat property.

  2. Create your own NumberFormatInfo object and set all its properties yourself.

  Once you have your NumberFormatInfo you do basically as before, except you specify the format rather than accepting the default:

  myDecimal.ToString("c", myNumberFormatInfo)

  Um, the answer has already been provided.  Do you want the silver platter too?  Have you made any attempt to read the documentation for the NumberFormatInfo or CultureInfo classes, or are you waiting for someone else to do everything for you?
