What is ESOP valuation?

ESOP valuation estimates the value of stock options given to employees. Accounting, company law and income tax each look at a different value at a different date, so one plan usually needs more than one number.

How are options valued for the accounts?

Ind AS 102 (and, for non-Ind AS companies, the ICAI Guidance Note on Accounting for Share-based Payments) measures options at fair value on the grant date, using an option-pricing model such as Black-Scholes, a binomial lattice or Monte Carlo simulation. Inputs include the share value, exercise price, expected life, volatility, risk-free rate and dividend yield.

What about income tax on exercise?

When an employee exercises options, the difference between the share's fair market value on the exercise date and the price paid is taxed as a perquisite. For unlisted shares, the perquisite rules have long required that value to be determined by a SEBI-registered Category I merchant banker (Rule 3(8) of the 1962 Rules); we check the corresponding provision of the Income-tax Rules, 2026 for each engagement and coordinate that report where it is needed.

Employees of eligible DPIIT-recognised start-ups can defer the tax payment on this perquisite under the deferral provision, which we factor into plan communication.
