28 December 2010 since you are receiving $, the next action you will do it to sell $ and get Rs.

So you have to enter into a "Sell $" future contract @ 46.86.

You will enter into a contract to sell $1,00,000 @ 46.86. Since actual rate on 1st Sept is better by 0.02, you have a loss (this is a loss that you did not know when you entered into the future contract)

Hope this is clear.
