Welcome to JavaRanch, sridhar!
According to The DecimalFormat Class Documentation:
The grouping size is a constant number of digits between the grouping characters, such as 3 for 100,000,000 or 4 for 1,0000,0000. If you supply a pattern with multiple grouping characters, the interval between the last one and the end of the integer is the one that is used. So "#,##,###,####" == "######,####" == "##,####,####". So, you cannot have varying grouping sizes.

Of course, writing your own number formatter should be pretty simple. Want to give it a try?
