Companies are again planning to raise funds via FCCB route.
Who cares about Forex and MTM risks?
 
In fact, it's possible that forex and mtm risks, may turn out to be profitable in future. It all depends how Indian Rupee behaves.
Fund Management is Most Important

The rupee is expected to move to 35-40 Rs per dollar by the next decade. IT cos will face termendous margin pressures.
 
A strong rupee encourages the people of a country and it's entrepreneurs to bring about productivity improvements rather than just tinkering with the exchange rates. It enables a country to have a limit on it's imports and not to overpay on them and underreceive on receivables or exports. Michael Porter with his insightful analysis has laid that an appreciating currency is in one's interests.
 
The labour force of india especially the NREGA all it does is dig roads and other tasks which are as good as revenue expenditure as these roads would not exist till the next monsoon. The food inflation that we are experiencing is not going to go away.

How do FCCB holders recognize revenues?  
Various FCCB issues seem like teaser loans to jobless folks. It's like asking the incorrigible alcoholic to mind the bar.
Managements dutifully raised as much money as possible through FCCBs by projecting a glorious future and then siphoned off the money through capex, acquisitions in foreign countries and I'm sure through plain pilffering. (read money parked in opaque foreign banks)  Such managements have also pledged away most of the management stock holding so they'll not hold the bag and they also got to raise a lot of money.
 
I doubt any ordinary banker type of evaluation would have passed muster. Given this i suspect the investment bankers always expected a bunch of these FCCBs to explode but they got to collect their fees and bonuses upfront so they probabily never cared.
