Don't know about the other cities but here in Hyderabad, the number 9 or a combination of numbers that add up to 9 seem to be in huge demand.
There is a big demand for 9999 - I have heard people paying close to 3 lakhs for the number at the RTA Auctions. Next in the line are 999,99,9 or a combination that leads to 9 - 45, 27, 81, 36 and so on.

Then you get to see vehicles with all 4 same numbers - 2222,4444,7777.
For businessmen in particular, numbers - cell numbers, vehicle numbers and so, carry a lot of significance, and they wouldn't mind spending - just to get a number of their choice.

And then you have the 'boss' number - 8055.
Counting the numbers to see if they add up to 9 - or form a combination - is a favourite time pass while driving to work every day.

Note to moderators - I haven't searched if there was a thread about fancy numbers. If there is , would you please merge this thread? Thanks
