What is a business valuation?

A business valuation estimates what a company or its shares are worth for a stated purpose and date. Several laws prescribe who must sign the report and which methods are acceptable, so the purpose decides the report.

When does the law require a registered valuer?

Under the Companies Act, 2013 a registered valuer's report is required for preferential allotments and private placements (sections 62(1)(c) and 42), non-cash transactions with directors (section 192), compromises, arrangements and mergers (sections 230 to 232) and minority buy-outs (section 236). Section 247 and the Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules, 2017 govern who can act.

In insolvency, the resolution professional appoints two registered valuers to estimate the fair value and liquidation value of the corporate debtor's assets.

What about FEMA and income-tax valuations?

When shares move between residents and non-residents, the Foreign Exchange Management (Non-Debt Instruments) Rules, 2019 require pricing at fair value under an internationally accepted pricing method, certified by a chartered accountant, a SEBI-registered merchant banker or a practising cost accountant.

For income tax, the fair market value of unquoted shares is worked out under the prescribed rules — Rule 57 of the Income-tax Rules, 2026, which replaced Rule 11UA from 1 April 2026. The angel-tax provision no longer applies from assessment year 2025-26, but these rules still matter for share transfers.
