Frequently asked — Menen

What is pre-shipment finance and how do I access it?
Pre-shipment finance (packing credit) is a loan from an Indian bank to fund the procurement, production, and packaging of goods before shipment. Two types: (1) PCFC (Pre-Shipment Credit in Foreign Currency) — in USD/EUR at SOFR/EURIBOR-based rates, typically lower than INR credit; (2) Packing Credit in INR — at concessional rates for confirmed export orders. Apply with your confirmed purchase order or LC.
Can India trade in Rupees with EU?
India is promoting INR settlement for bilateral trade. An INR settlement mechanism requires: (1) EU importer opens a special INR Vostro account at an Indian bank, (2) EU importer pays in INR; Indian exporter receives INR. As of 2026, INR settlement with EU is limited — most India-EU trade remains in USD or EUR. RBI has approved INR trade with UAE, Russia, Malaysia, and several other countries.
How do I hedge INR/EUR exchange rate risk?
Indian exporters can hedge EUR/INR exposure using: (1) Forward contracts with Indian banks — lock in the EUR/INR rate for a future delivery date; (2) Cross-currency swap — exchange EUR receivables for INR at a fixed rate; (3) Options — buy the right (not obligation) to exchange at a fixed rate. Under FEMA, Indian exporters can hedge up to 100% of contracted foreign currency exposures with RBI-authorised banks.
