Management of Foreign Exchange Transactions in India
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Trade and financial transactions within a country are generally carried out in local currencies i.e.
Rupees in India, unless otherwise permitted in a foreign currency for a specific reason. When such
transactions take place between persons/entities of two different countries that use different
currencies, it is necessary to convert local currencies into foreign currencies or vice versa. These
are known as foreign exchange transactions. In order to facilitate such transactions, commercial
banks appointed as Authorised Dealers in foreign exchange are permitted to buy, sell, lend and
borrow foreign currencies in foreign exchange markets. These foreign exchange dealings are also
treated as foreign exchange transactions. The rate at which the currencies are converted is the
exchange rate. The buying and selling exchange rates are announced daily by the Central Bank.
My Project mainly related to identify:-
1. The management of foreign exchange transaction in India across three different companies
such as bank, manufacturing and Export-Import House.
2. Suggest the ways to minimize the risk from foreign exchange transaction

WHY IS THE PARTICULAR TOPIC CHOOSEN
Effective foreign exchange management is a financial tool for ensuring the profitability of the
company’s primary business. As such, the company should prepare a comprehensive policy
statement on foreign exchange risk that clearly states the company’s objectives, the tactics for
attaining these objectives, and the allocation of responsibility for exercising these tactics. The
company should rank the types of exposures that it faces as a result of fluctuating exchange rates
according to their importance to financial, operating and senior management. This prioritization
serves as the basis for focusing exposure management efforts and deciding which protective
actions the company should employ. The company should review these ranking as operating
conditions change. For most companies, the management of transactional and consolidated
corporate earnings exposures takes precedence over exposures arising from accounting translation
methods. When situations occur in which the company’s earnings are threatened by factors arising
from more than one type of exposure, treasury staff should treat the underlying exposure according
to the priority assigned by management.
WHAT CONTRIBUTION WOULD THE PROJECT MAKE AND TO WHOM
Result of my survey and analysis would provide very useful input to the management of foreign
exchange transactions as a major concern for companies who deals in day to day to foreign
exchange. My study work will also be appreciated by selected companies to whom I will research.
They have welcomed my effort and hard work and looking forward to collect all available data in
this respect and ensure me that the management will positively think to the conclusions of my
project work.
