what is the major difference between ECBs and FCCBs.
how is the accounting treatment done to them as to mitigate
the forex fluctuation?

Answer Posted / biju ramakrishnapillai

External Commercial Borrowings is a wider term, and it includes Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds before conversion into equity.

ECB is borrowings and when FCCB is converted into shares, it changes the form - from Debt into Equity- and it is no more ECB.

Hope this helps.
