The diamond is worth only $10-12 billion (edit: at most), which is a decent chunk of money, but only 0.25% of the Indian Federal Government's YEARLY budget or only 10% of the Pakistani Federal Government's YEARLY budget.

EDIT: apparently the diamond is worth even less - google fu has failed me yet again

There's no way it's worth that much.

Articles kicking around estimate at 140 - 400 million, with some "over a billion".

Makes sense! Looks like google fu failed me again!
