17 December 2019 The bill of entry is the document by which the export and import is taken place and the date of ill entry is import/ export date. That is why the rate mentioned in Bill of entry is to be accounted both for import and export. I can tell only the query regarding accounting and you can cross check with experts.. But I have nothing to say for the question asked in your last sentence.
