A pivot table would be the simplest, but you want a formula so OK. First the pivot table. Highlight all of the cells that contain data, including the header information. Go to Data>Pivot Table. When the dialog box opens, Click Finish. The Pivot Table Field list will open. Drag the data to the far right column and to the data field. This will be automatically set to count. It will give you a count and a summary of each down the left column. Right click on the top left gray button and choose Field Settings. A dialog will open allowing you to adjust for your needs. Anytime you add new data, you will need to refresh the pivot table by right clicking anywhere on the table and select Refresh. AutoFilter: Select the cell at the top of your list and click Data>Filter>Auto Filter. A drop down box will appear. Click on the arrow and select the filter criteria "New Dehli", no quotes. Look at the bottom left corner of your screen. It will say "x of xx records found". This will give you a quick count. Formula: Select and empty cell and type =countif(a1:a1000,"New Dehli") This will count all of the records that have the exact text "New Dehli", no quotes, in them. You will need to select several cells to place this formula in. Replace "New Dehli" with "Agra", etc. as needed. This can be done on your summary tab. It does not have to be on the same work sheet.

You have to use VBA to build a function before you can do that with a formula
After setting up with the instruction below Use the following to change numeric to word
e.g. Cell A1 = SpellNumber(1000), you will get a thousand in the cell
1.Start Microsoft Excel.
2.Press ALT+F11 to start the Visual Basic Editor.
3.On the Insert menu, click Module.
4.Type the following code into the module sheet.
Option Explicit
'Main Function
Function SpellNumber(ByVal MyNumber)
Dim Dollars, Cents, Temp
Dim DecimalPlace, Count
ReDim Place(9) As String
Place(2) = " Thousand "
Place(3) = " Million "
Place(4) = " Billion "
Place(5) = " Trillion "
' String representation of amount.
MyNumber = Trim(Str(MyNumber))
' Position of decimal place 0 if none.
DecimalPlace = InStr(MyNumber, ".")
' Convert cents and set MyNumber to dollar amount.
If DecimalPlace > 0 Then
Cents = GetTens(Left(Mid(MyNumber, DecimalPlace + 1) & _
"00", 2))
MyNumber = Trim(Left(MyNumber, DecimalPlace - 1))
End If
