Dear Neeraj,
When u raise Overseas Bill for overseas debtor u prepare the bill in USD.The accounting is done in tally in indian Rupee.So while accounting the sales the exchange rate is the factor by which u convert the USD sales to Indian rupee sales.
While realising the money from Overseas Debtor , u may collect the correct amt in terms of USD. But the exchange rate would have changed.Becasue of the change in exchange rate the company faces loss or gain.
It is this loss or gain which is accounted by way of debiting or crediting "Exchnage loss or Gain " and second effect is given to Debtor.
I think i have cleared ur doubts.
The discussion which is happening in this thread / forum is about the amt whcih tally automatically calculates and is reflected in debtors grouping. This is usually found if u have started multi currency facility . The amt is reversed by certain method and we all are discussing this point.
