Get Certificate for ECB Utilization by Chartered Accountant – For RBI, AD Bank & FEMA Compliance

If your company has received funds from abroad in the form of External Commercial Borrowing (ECB), it is mandatory to report and certify the end-use of those funds to comply with FEMA (Foreign Exchange Management Act), RBI guidelines, and Authorized Dealer (AD) bank requirements.

At Taxfixy, we help Indian companies, startups, and corporates obtain accurate and timely ECB Utilization Certificates, certified by a Chartered Accountant (CA) and accepted by banks, RBI, and compliance authorities.
