The value of export turnover should be the total of USD value of all the invoices raised multiplied by the exchange rate (so as to convert into INR) on the date of raising the invoice. This has nothing to do with the payment received.

thanks for reply.It mean that actual sales realisation will be different than sales return figure.which will than be adjusted with exchange rate fluctuations while finalising accounts .does it need revising sales tax returns .can you suggest me some good study material on this topic

Your understanding is right. No need for revision of salestax return by including exchange fluctuation gain if the receipt is at a latter date. But how can there be sales tax on export?
