Presently, ECB proceeds can be utilised for permissible foreign currency expenditure as well as Rupee expenditure.

This Circular requires borrowers to provide bifurcation of the utilisation of the ECB proceeds towards foreign currency and Rupee expenditure in Form-83 at the time of availing Loan Registration Number (LRN). Borrowers must repatriate to India, immediately after drawn down, for credit to their Rupee accounts proceeds meant for Rupee expenditure in India. Any contravention will be viewed seriously and will invite penal action under FEMA.
