The relevant Accounting standard is AS 11 - which allows (refer to insertion of para 46A vide GSR 914(E) dtd 29.12.2011) capitalisation of the loss incurred on account of exchange loss. In other words you would capitalize on the purchase date at the rate of Rs. 50, and on the date of final payment capitalize the difference of Rs. 3 - even if two accounting years may be involved in the transactions.
