100 Crore Club is an unofficial designation by the Indian film trade and the media, related to Indian-language films that have net ₹100 crore (1 billion Indian rupees) or more in India after deducting the entertainment tax.[1] By 2012, the ₹100 crore (US$13.3 million) box office target had become "a new benchmark for a film to be declared a hit",[2] and those affiliated with the 100 Crore Club were considered part of the "elite strata" within the Indian film community.[3] Actors Salman Khan (17) and Akshay Kumar (16) are currently the highest holders.[4]
It was succeeded by the 1000 Crore Club in 2017.[5]
