28 November 2013 my query basically is which one rate to choose sbi Bill sell rate or TT sell rate.

03 August 2025 For converting foreign currency loans at the closing date, the generally accepted practice is to use the SBI TT Selling Rate (TTS), not the Bill Selling Rate.

Why TTS?
The TTS rate reflects the rate at which the bank sells foreign currency for outward remittances or loans. Since the company owes the amount (liability), the TTS rate is more appropriate for conversion of foreign currency loan balances at the balance sheet date.

Bill Selling Rate is usually used for export bills and similar transactions, not for loans.

Regarding foreign consultancy income, it should be converted at the SBI TT Buying Rate (TTB), because it’s income received in foreign currency — so you convert foreign currency coming into your books at the rate the bank buys the currency.

Summary:
Transaction Type Rate to Use
Foreign currency loan (liability) SBI TT Selling Rate (TTS)
Foreign consultancy income (receipt) SBI TT Buying Rate (TTB)
