Business valuation is mandatory under the Companies Act 2013 for mergers and demergers (registered valuer required), share issue at premium to non-residents under FEMA, ESOP grant at fair market value under Section 17(2), share buyback, reduction of share capital, and IBC resolution plans. For fundraising and M&A it is strongly recommended though not always strictly mandatory.
DCF (Discounted Cash Flow) values a business based on its projected future free cash flows discounted at the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) — it is forward-looking and most appropriate for businesses with stable, predictable cash flows. CCA (Comparable Company Analysis) benchmarks the business against listed peers using EV/EBITDA, P/E and EV/Revenue multiples. We use both methods and arrive at a valuation range with a justified concluded value.
Yes. For statutory valuations under the Companies Act, FEMA and IBC that require an IBBI-registered valuer (Securities or Business), we engage our registered valuer panel. For advisory valuations (fundraising, ESOP, M&A) where a registered valuer is not mandatory, the report is prepared and certified by our senior CA team.
