What is the exchange rate to be adopted while booking in the Books of Account in case of Imports when advance has been paid.

Eg - Advance paid on 01/03/2017 - 100$ ($ = 69)

date of Bill of entry 10/03/2017 - 150 $ ($ = 70).

At which exchange rate the entry shall be posted in the Books of Account?

in my view, the rate should be transaction date rate ( meaning when actual advance has been given and such amount both INR and USD will be available from the bank statement), also bill of entry date is not relevant as advance might have been paid before the good would have been received.
