Frequently Asked Questions

Is an IBBI registered valuer mandatory for IBC valuations?
Yes. Under the IBBI (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons) Regulations, the Resolution Professional must appoint a registered valuer (IBBI registered) to determine fair value and liquidation value. CA V. Viswanathan holds IBBI registration IBBI/RV/03/2019/12333.
What is the difference between fair value and liquidation value?
Fair value is the estimated realisable value assuming the company continues as a going concern with reasonable market exposure. Liquidation value is the estimated realisable value if assets are sold individually on an as-is, where-is basis under a forced sale scenario. Both are required under IBC.
How long does an IBC valuation take?
Typically 7-15 working days from receipt of complete data. The CIRP timeline is strict (180 days extendable to 330 days), so we prioritise insolvency valuations and can accommodate urgent timelines. Contact us at +91-99622 60333.
Which insolvency, dispute or valuation work is needed at this stage, and who is qualified to undertake it?
In a corporate insolvency resolution process, the insolvency professional runs the process. The resolution professional appoints two Registered Valuers for each asset class to determine the fair value and the liquidation value of the company’s assets (CIRP Regulations 27 and 35), and these values guide the committee of creditors. The resolution professional must also examine preferential, undervalued, fraudulent and extortionate transactions (sections 43, 45, 50 and 66 of the Code), which often needs a forensic review. In liquidation, assets are valued again before sale. Before the NCLT, chartered accountants, company secretaries, cost accountants and advocates may appear (Companies Act, section 432). We act as Registered Valuer for securities and financial assets and do the forensic transaction review.

What the law says — Regulation 35, IBBI (CIRP) Regulations 2016; Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules 2017

Fair value and liquidation value of the corporate debtor are determined by two registered valuers appointed by the resolution professional, each submitting estimates for every asset class; the average of the two is used, with a third valuer where the estimates differ significantly. The values are kept confidential and shared with the committee of creditors only after plans are received.

How does the procedure work?

  1. Appointment of two registered valuers in the relevant asset classes
  2. Physical verification and data collection
