I would like to put comma as thousands seperator as 6,543,268 but my visual is showing as  65,43,268. I am based out of India; what change I need to make in my PowerBI Desktop setting to see the numbers the way I want?

Please set the data type from Whole Number to Decimal Number for a test.

 

Also, please set the locale of the file accordingly:
