While working with numbers, a thought just came into my mind that what would we call, when we count above trillion or 10 Kharab in Urdu. For example, In Urdu when we start counting, we come across a scale that is;
Ekai, Dahai, Sainkra, Hazar, Dus Hazar, Lakh, Dus Lakh, Crore, dus Crore, Arab, Dus Arab, Kharab and Dus Kharab or 1 trillion.
Beyond Dus Kharab, 1 trillion, our counting turns into 100 Kharab, 1000 Kharab or 10 trillion, 100 trillion etc. the reason, because we usually don’t know, what 100 Kharab is called.
Luckily, I was able to find terms used for figure above 10 Kharab (1 trillion) , which sorted as per the scale are as follow;
| Urdu (Roman) اردو | Figure (Power Notation) | English |
| Ekai اکاءی | 1 (100) | One |
| Dahai (Dus) دہاءی | 10 (101) | Ten |
| Sainkra (Sou)سینکڑہ | 100 (102) | Hundred |
| Hazar ہزار | 1000 (103) | Thousand |
| Dus Hazar دس ہزار | 10000 (104) | Ten Thousand |
| Lakh لاکھ | 100000 (105) | One Hundred Thousand |
| Dus Lakh دس لاکھ | 1000000 (106) | One Million |
| Crore کروڑ | 10000000 (107) | Ten Million |
| Dus Crore دس کروڑ | 100000000 (108) | Hundred Million |
| Arab ارب | 1000000000 (109) | One Billion |
| Dus Arab دس ارب | 10000000000 (1010) | Ten Billion |
| Kharab کھرب | 100000000000 (1011) | Hundred Billion |
| Dus Kharab دس کھرب | 1000000000000 (1012) | One Trillion |
| Neelum نیلم | 10000000000000 (1013) | Ten Trillion |
| Dus Neelum دس نیلم | 100000000000000 (1014) | Hundred Trillion |
| Padam پدم | 1000000000000000 (1015) | One Quadrillion |
| Dus Padam دس پدم | 10000000000000000 (1016) | Ten Quadrillion |
| Sankh سنکھ | 100000000000000000 (1017) | One Hundred Quadrillion |
| Dus Sankh دس سنکھ | 1000000000000000000 (1018) | One Quintillion |
| Maha Sankh مہا سنکھ | 10000000000000000000 (1019) | Ten Quintillion |
| Dus Maha Sankhدس مہا سنکھ | 100000000000000000000 (1020) | Hundred Quintillion |
As per Wikipedia source, looking into old Indian numerical, one can find numbers beyond Maha Sankh. Those terms are rarely used in history, however, these exists. The figures beyond Maha Sankh are termed as Ankh/Maha udpadha (One Sextillion), Jald/Padha, Madh (Ten Septillion), Paraadha (One Octillion), Ant, Maha Ant (Ten Nonillion), Shisht (One Decillion), Singhar, Maha Singhar (Ten Undecillion) and Adant Singhar which is equal to One Duodecillian or 1039 or 1,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,000/-
