    Is there any guidelines as to which rate is to be used for reinstatement of balance in EEFC account at the period end.
    For eg. Fedai rates as on 31st March

    • Jigar Patel, CFA (USA), MBA-Finance (USA), CPA (USA), CA (India) says:

      If you are thinking just for accounting, you may take the RBI reference rate or Customs rate. Any difference would be considered as foreign exchange fluctuation for the next year when you actually move the funds. Thanks.

  2. Shabana says:

    Is there an exception in case of rfc account (balances to be converted to INR) for certain ctg of person. Like pension etc.


      I do not understand your question. Please elaborate. The funds in RFC account are kept in foreign currency (USD/GBP,EUR, etc.). Thanks.
