How to write 5 lakh on cheque

To write 5 lakh on a cheque, you need to fill in both the numeric and word sections correctly:

• In the amount box (numeric), write 5,00,000/-. Using commas according to the Indian numbering system helps prevent errors.
• On the line for the amount in words, write Rupees Five Lakh Only.

Ensure that the words match the figures exactly and that your signature is placed clearly in the designated area. Using the suffix Only after the words and /- after the numbers prevents any unauthorized additions to the amount.
