If you're writing for an audience outside of India you might want to explain what ₹9 lakh equates to, as both the value of ₹1 and the magnitude of the lakh are probably unfamiliar.

(Apparently that's 9x10^5 INR, or in the neighborhood of 10,000€ or $10,000. If you're curious about this system of naming and writing numbers used in India and other countries in the region, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakh and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_numbering_system#Use_of... will get you started)
