Here is the other way around:

import re
def in_for(value):
    value,b=str(value),''
    value=''.join(map(lambda va:va if re.match(r'[0-9,.]',va) else '',value))
    val=value
    if val.count(',')==0:
        v,c,a,cc,ii=val,0,[3,2,2],0,0
        val=val[:val.rfind('.')] if val.rfind('.')>=0  else val
        for i in val[::-1]:
            if c==ii and c!=0:
                ii+=a[cc%3]
                b=','+i+b
                cc+=1  
            else:
                b=i+b
            c+=1
        b=b[1:] if b[0]==',' else b
        val=b+v[value.rfind('.'):]  if value.rfind('.')>=0  else b
    else:
        val=str(val).strip('()').replace(' ','')
    v=val.rfind('.')
    if v>0:
        val=val[:v+3]
    return val.rstrip('0').rstrip('.') if '.' in val else val

print(in_for('1000000000000.5445'))

Output will be:

10,000,00,00,000.54 

(As mentioned in wikipedia indian number system Ex:67,89,000,00,00,000)
