    FORMAT(X,D[,locale])

    In mysql FORMAT function is used for formats a number X to a format like '#,###,###.##' and rounded to decimal places, and it returns the result as a string. If D is 0, the result has no decimal point. The third optional parameter is used for which local region you want in output, for example you want the result in US manner then you should need to use 'en_US' and if you want in indian english then 'en_IN' and same for all others. Here are some example-

    mysql> SELECT FORMAT(123456987.232,2);
    +-------------------------+
    | FORMAT(123456987.232,2) |
    +-------------------------+
    | 123,456,987.23          |
    +-------------------------+

    mysql> SELECT FORMAT(123456987.237,2);
