If the numbers change because of user input, you could use an event macro.
Rightclick on the worksheet tab that should have this behavior and select view
code.
Paste this in:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim myNumberFormat As String
If Target.Cells.Count 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Me.Range("b:b")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If Application.IsNumber(Target.Value) = False Then Exit Sub
myNumberFormat = ""
Select Case Target.Value
Case Is < 100000
myNumberFormat = "#,###.00"
Case Is < 1000000
myNumberFormat = "##\,##\,##0.00"
Case Is < 100000000
myNumberFormat = "##\,##\,##\,##0.00"
End Select
If myNumberFormat = "" Then
'you didn't make enough formats!
Else
Target.NumberFormat = myNumberFormat
End If
End Sub
Add as many checks as you want.

That is difficult, because the format only allows a certain number of
conditions, and we have exhausted them.

Dear Phillips,
my requirement is as below
no matter what the number is it should display 2 decimal places & then
going
from left to right 1st 3 digits left alone after which there should be
comma
after every 2 digits.
eg:
100 = 100.00
1000 = 1,000.00
10000 = 10,000.00
100000 = 1,00,000.00
1000000 = 10,00,000.00
10000000 = 1,00,00,000.00
100000000 = 10,00,00,000.00
1000000000 = 1,00,00,00,000.00
10000000000 = 10,00,00,00,000.00
..... & so on

Decimal points
[=10000000]##\,##\,##\,##0.00;[=100000]##\,##\,##0.00;##,##0.00
All the hashes represent a number, but show as blank if they are
leading
zeroes. With normal numbers, you just define
#,##0.00
and Excel will add a comma every 3rd digit, but as Indian numbers have
commas in 2nd digit in some cases, it all has to be explicitly defined.

How to add decimial points & can you explain this sequence of hash &
zeros

Use a custom format of
[=10000000]##\,##\,##\,##0;[=100000]##\,##\,##0.00;##,##0
