What is CCPS valuation?

CCPS are preference shares that must convert into equity on set terms. Venture investors use them for liquidation preference and anti-dilution rights, which is why their value differs from the value of ordinary equity.

How does FEMA treat CCPS?

Under the Non-Debt Instruments Rules, 2019, preference shares count as equity instruments only if they are fully, compulsorily and mandatorily convertible. The price or conversion formula must be fixed upfront at the time of issue, and the price at conversion cannot be lower than the fair value worked out at the time of issue. Allotment to a non-resident is reported in Form FC-GPR within 30 days.

How are CCPS valued?

Because CCPS carry rights that equity does not, we allocate the company's equity value across share classes using the option-pricing method (OPM), the probability-weighted expected return method (PWERM) or the current-value method, and model the liquidation-preference waterfall. Where a recent round exists, we back-solve from its price.

For accounts, Ind AS 32 decides whether the CCPS are equity or a financial liability; liability-classified CCPS are then measured at fair value under Ind AS 109.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are CCPS treated as equity under FEMA?
Yes, if they are fully, compulsorily and mandatorily convertible; partly or optionally convertible preference shares are treated as debt under FEMA.
When must the conversion price be fixed?
Under FEMA, the price or conversion formula must be fixed upfront at issue. Under the Companies Act rules, the conversion price is fixed either upfront or not earlier than 30 days before the holder becomes entitled to convert, on a registered valuer's report.
Which offices deal with CCPS valuation for a business in Ramapuram?
Companies with a registered office in Ramapuram come under the Registrar of Companies, Chennai. FEMA reports are filed on the RBI's FIRMS portal through your authorised dealer bank; compounding applications go to the RBI regional office, Chennai.

No. We serve Ramapuram from our head office at Spencer Plaza, Anna Salai. Documents are shared securely online, filings are signed with a digital signature, and meetings are by video or at our office by appointment. Call +91 99622 60333 or email support@virtualauditor.in.
How do conversion terms, preferences and other rights affect this instrument's value?
Each right shifts value between classes of shareholders. A liquidation preference gives the holder money first on an exit; participation lets it share again after that; the conversion ratio or formula, anti-dilution protection, dividend rights, redemption terms and caps or discounts on notes change what the holder receives in each outcome. We read the actual terms in the articles and the shareholders’ agreement, model the outcomes (option-pricing, scenario-weighted or waterfall methods) and allocate the equity value across classes. The purpose matters: Ind AS fair value for the accounts, the FEMA rule that the conversion price or formula is fixed upfront at issue for foreign investors, and the Companies Act report for a preferential issue.
