string format for amount in indian format in MVC razor

I am developing a MVC app. I have some amount fields. by default it showing numbers without comma separation. for e.g. if I have amount 500000000 then I want to display it like 50,00,00,000 I want to show in Indian currency format,in indian format first comma comes after 3 digits then for every 2 digits comma appears.

How to do this ?

I have tried this , but giving an error...

 @{  

                   long myNumber = 123981202803;
                    System.Globalization.CultureInfo Indian = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("hi-IN");
                    }
                   @(String.Format(Indian, "{0:N}", modelItem => item.SanctionedAmount))
}

Try

CultureInfo Indian = new CultureInfo("in-IN");
String.Format(Indian,"{0:N}", myNumber);

In the view add something like: (list of culutres i.e "hi-IN" here)

<h3>
    @{  
        long myNumber = 123981202803;
        System.Globalization.CultureInfo Indian = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("hi-IN");
     }
     @(String.Format(Indian, "{0:N}", myNumber))
</h3>

You have to set the appropriate culture for each region you want specific formatting for. Take a look at this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/syy068tk(v=vs.71).aspx
