On daily basis all the accounts are reported in its respective local and foreign currencies. These foreign currencies accounts get revalued once every month (end of the month) for regulatory and Group reporting with spot exchange rate. The system generates the Exchange profit / loss amount on revaluation of Assets and liabilities at the end of the month and reverse P&L on the next day.
