ECB - External Commercial Borrowing is a window for the corporates to avail the loan at cheap interest rate from international bond market, international banks through automatic route or approval route. Under automatic route, the corporates need not to get the approval from RBI/ government to raise the funds through the issue of ECB to international banks whereas under approval route, the corporatess under go certain guidelines.
There are certain conditions for ECB placement. ECBs should be placed minimum with the maturity period of 3 years and the corporates are allowed to take the ECB route for financing the business only up to 50%. Usually, the corporates adopt this kind of borrwing to finance the imports and also to fund greeen field projects.
