Benefits of Our

Valuation Services

Service

Facilitates Informed Transactions
An objective and credible valuation is the cornerstone of any successful M&A deal, joint venture, or divestiture. Our comprehensive valuation reports provide a solid basis for negotiation, ensuring you pay a fair price as a buyer or receive fair value as a seller, thereby maximizing deal value.
Ensures Strict Regulatory Compliance
Indian regulations frequently mandate valuations by a registered professional for various corporate actions. We ensure full compliance with the Companies Act, 2013 (which requires an IBBI Registered Valuer), FEMA pricing guidelines for cross-border transactions, and specific Income Tax Act rules (e.g., Rule 11UA for "angel tax"). This diligence mitigates legal exposure and helps avoid potential penalties.
Aids in Strategic Business Planning
Understanding your company's current value is fundamental to long-term strategic planning. It helps in measuring performance over time, making critical decisions about growth initiatives, corporate restructuring, or planning for exit strategies.
Resolves Disputes and Supports Litigation
Our independent valuation reports serve as expert evidence in legal disputes, such as shareholder conflicts, family settlements, or commercial damage claims. By providing an objective and well-reasoned basis for value, we facilitate fair and equitable resolutions.
Supports Fundraising and Attracts Investors
A professional and transparent valuation report is essential when raising capital from venture capitalists, private equity firms, or banking institutions. It substantiates your company's intrinsic worth, justifies the funding request, and builds critical investor confidence in your enterprise's potential.

Process

Step 1
Understanding the Purpose and Defining the Scope
Our process begins with a detailed consultation to clearly understand the purpose of the valuation—be it for a transaction, compliance, or financial reporting. This crucial first step defines the scope of our work, the appropriate standard of value (e.g., Fair Market Value, Liquidation Value), and the specific valuation date.
Step 2
Data Collection and Due Diligence
Our team collects and meticulously analyzes all relevant information, including historical financial statements, future business projections, asset registers, market data, and industry-specific trends. This phase involves a thorough due diligence of the provided information to ensure its accuracy and reliability.
Step 3
Application of Valuation Methodologies
We select and apply the most appropriate valuation methods based on the nature of the business and the purpose of the valuation. Our expertise covers all three principal, globally-recognized approaches: Income Approach: This method, often using the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis, focuses on the future income-generating capacity of the business. Market Approach: This approach, using methods like Comparable Company Multiples and Precedent Transaction Analysis, benchmarks the business against similar companies and deals in the market. Asset/Cost Approach: This method values the business based on the fair market value of its net assets, considering both tangible and intangible assets.
Step 4
Analysis and Synthesis of Value
We do not rely on a single method. We synthesize the results from the different approaches, applying our professional judgment and considering critical factors like liquidity discounts (DLOM) for private companies, to arrive at a conclusive and highly defensible value or range of values.
Step 5
Preparation of the Valuation Report
Our findings are presented in a comprehensive, clear, and transparent valuation report. The report explicitly details the scope of work, the methodologies applied, key assumptions made, limiting conditions, and our final conclusion of value, ensuring it can withstand rigorous scrutiny from auditors, investors, and regulatory authorities.
