It is an established principle that the provision for doubt debts is created for the doubtful portion. The ECL is a method of computing the doubtful portion of the receivables. But to the extent the loan is secured, there is no need of making the provisions. Hence but oblivious the provision shall be made for the unsecured portion to the extent of doubtful computed by using ECL.
