There are greater numbers, than the ones mentioned below. Maha Padma = 10^15 Kshoni = 10^16 Parardha = 10^17 Sankha = 10^18 Maha Sankha = 10^19 Kshithi = 10^20 Maha Kshiti = 10^21 Kshobha = 10^22 Maha Kshobha = 10^23 Neethi Lamba = 10^27 Sarva Bala = 10^45 Thallakshana = 10^83

Ganitha Kerala, the Kerala School of Astronomy and Maths, has given a lot of names for big numbers. Like the Western Myriad = 10^4 Million = 10^6 Indian names are Shata = 10^2 Sahasra = 10^3 Ayutha = 10^4 Laksha = 10^5 Dasa Laksha = 10^6 ( Million ) Koti = 10^7 Dasa Koti = 10^8 Vrinda = 10^9 Kharva = 10^10 Nikharva = 10^11 Mahapadma = 10^12 Mahakharva = 10^13 Padma = 10^14 In the Western, we have Million = 1000^2 Billion = 1000^3 Trillion = 1000^4 or Nillion = 1000^(n+1) where n is the number. Tri meaning 3 and trillion = 1000^(3+1)!
