Hello everyone,

I was hopping someone could help me with a question I have about dates and counting years in India.

I've found an old certificate of my grandmother from india (kochi, kerala), an official government certificate, (a leaving secondary school certificate)
and her date of birth is stated there in numbers and also in words as: "8.4.1104 . eight , four, eleven thousand and four"

I know that my grandmother was born on 26.6.1928 so is this a different way of counting years and dates?

Thanks so much for anyone who answer.
