Why FilingPro?

Why Kuselar Nagar Porur Clients Choose FilingPro

Expert Valuation in Kuselar Nagar Porur — qualified professionals, 15+ years experience, zero-penalty track record.

Comparable Companies Set Curated by Industry

Listed peers selected on business model, size, growth, margin, leverage and geography match. Median multiple applied with size-growth-margin adjustment. Outliers excluded with documented rationale. Multiples rolled forward / backward to the valuation date.

Comparable Transactions With Control Premium Adjusted

Precedent M&A multiples sourced and adjusted for embedded control premium (typically 25-30%) when valuing minority stakes. Transaction-specific synergies are stripped where the target's standalone value is sought.

DLOM Quantified — Not Anchored

Discount for Lack of Marketability is supported quantitatively — Longstaff put-option, Finnerty or Stillian-Bajaj models with expected holding period and volatility inputs. Range typically 20-30% per restricted-stock and pre-IPO studies.

Section 56(2)(viib) Abolition Tracked

Pre-1-April-2025 share issues are valued under Rule 11UA(2). Post-1-April-2025, Section 56(2)(viib) is abolished and the focus shifts to FEMA NDI Schedule I (cross-border) and Section 50CA + Rule 11UAA (transferor side) and Section 56(2)(x) (transferee side).

Section 50CA + Rule 11UAA Defended

Where unquoted shares are transferred below FMV, Section 50CA deems FMV as the consideration for capital gains. Rule 11UAA NAV-based FMV computed and the transferor defended. Transferee's parallel Section 56(2)(x) exposure also documented.

FEMA NDI Schedule I Pricing Certificate

Pricing certificate issued under Rule 21 of FEMA NDI Rules 2019 Schedule I for issue or transfer of equity to / from non-residents — at not less than / not more than FMV per internationally accepted methodology, signed by SEBI Merchant Banker or CA.

People Also Ask — Valuation in Kuselar Nagar Porur
Is angel tax under Section 56(2)(viib) still applicable in FY 2025-26?
No. The Finance (No. 2) Act 2024 omitted the proviso under Section 56(2)(viib) of the Income-tax Act 1961 with effect from 1 April 2025. For consideration received on or after 1 April 2025 by a closely-held company against share issue, angel tax does not apply — to either residents or non-residents. Pre-1 April 2025 issues continue to be governed by Section 56(2)(viib) read with Rule 11UA(2).
Who can sign a business valuation report under the Companies Act?
Only an IBBI Registered Valuer enrolled in the Securities or Financial Assets class is empowered to sign a valuation report under Section 247 of the Companies Act 2013 read with the Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules 2017. The valuer must be a member of a Registered Valuer Organisation (RVO), have cleared the IBBI valuation examination and hold a current registration. The Securities class covers shares, debentures, derivatives, business equity, intangibles.
What is the difference between Rule 11UA(1) and Rule 11UA(2)?
Rule 11UA(1) prescribes FMV computation for property received under Section 56(2)(x) — for unquoted equity, a NAV-based formula. Rule 11UA(2) prescribes FMV for shares issued at a premium covered by Section 56(2)(viib) — five methods including DCF, NAV, Comparable Companies, PWERM and OPM. Rule 11UA(1) applies to the recipient transferee; Rule 11UA(2) applied to the issuer of fresh equity (until 31 March 2025).
How is the discount rate (WACC) built for an Indian unlisted company?
WACC = (E/V × Ke) + (D/V × Kd × (1 - T)). Ke via CAPM = Rf + β × MRP — with Rf = 10-year G-Sec ~7%, β = industry levered beta from listed peers re-levered to target D/E using the Hamada formula, MRP = 6-8% for India per Damodaran country-risk database. Kd = pre-tax interest cost × (1 - effective tax rate, typically 25.17% under Section 115BAA). For unlisted companies, a small-firm premium of 2-4% is added.
Is a fairness opinion the same as a valuation report?
No. A valuation report (issued by a Registered Valuer under Section 247) determines the value or range of value of the security or asset. A fairness opinion (typically issued by a SEBI-registered Merchant Banker for listed-company schemes per SEBI Master Circular on Schemes 2023) opines on whether the share-exchange ratio or transaction price is fair from a financial point of view to a particular class of stakeholders. Both are required for listed-company schemes of arrangement under Sections 230-232.
Why is DLOM applied to unlisted shares and how much?
Discount for Lack of Marketability reflects the inability to readily convert unlisted equity into cash. Restricted-stock studies (Stout, Mergerstat) and pre-IPO studies place DLOM in the 20-30% band for closely-held Indian companies. Quantitative support is built via Longstaff put-option, Finnerty or Stillian-Bajaj models with inputs of expected holding period and volatility. Combined with minority discount, total reduction can reach 30-45% for a small minority stake in an unlisted company.
Who can act as a registered valuer under Section 247?

Section 247 of Companies Act read with IBBI registration requires IBBI-registered valuers in asset-class — securities/financial assets, land/building, plant/machinery. Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules 2017 prescribe educational qualifications, experience, and conduct standards for registered valuers.

How is DCF valuation defended against AO challenge?

Maintain merchant-banker valuation report with revenue projections, WACC computation, and terminal growth rationale. Cite CIT v Vegetable Products SC on liberal construction. Demonstrate hindsight cannot displace contemporaneous DCF if methodology is sound — DCF is forward-looking by design.

What is Rule 11UA(2) investment method for share valuation?

Rule 11UA(2) provides DCF-based and investment-method computation for share-issue-price determination. Applies to issuer-side Section 56(2)(viib) cases. Sub-rule (b) covers CCPS/CCD with conversion features factoring liquidation preference and dividend rights.

Is valuation by chartered accountant valid under Rule 11UA?

Rule 11UA Method B mandates Category-I SEBI-registered merchant banker for DCF valuation. Chartered accountants can perform Method A NAV-computation. Companies Act Section 247 separately requires IBBI-registered valuer for preferential allotment and share-capital reductions.

How is buyback share valuation determined?

Buyback under Companies Act Section 68 requires merchant-banker fairness-opinion. Section 115QA additional income-tax computes distributed-income at Rule 40BB FMV. Daiichi Sankyo v Malvinder Singh DEL HC affirmed judicial deference to expert-valuation absent manifest error in buyback-pricing.

What is Section 50CA for unquoted share transfer?

Section 50CA deems FMV under Rule 11UA(1)(c)(b) as full sale consideration when unquoted shares transferred below FMV — recomputing capital gains. Proviso exempts transfers to specified-relative class. Section 247 Registered Valuer report defends FMV-determination.

What is business valuation and its statutory architecture

The regulatory matrix governing valuation in India

Business valuation in the Indian context operates at the intersection of multiple statutory and regulatory frameworks, no single one of which is exhaustive. The Income-tax Act 1961 contemplates fair market value at several junctures — Section 56(2)(viib) on receipt of share premium by a closely-held company, Section 56(2)(x) on receipt of property by any person without or for inadequate consideration, Section 50CA on transfer of unlisted shares below fair market value, Section 50B read with Rule 11UAE on slump sales, and Section 92 read with Rules 10A to 10T on international and specified domestic transactions. The Companies Act 2013 through Section 247 read with the Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules 2017 imposes a registered-valuer requirement on valuations under that Act, with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India operating as the registering authority and issuing the Valuation Standards 101 through 103. Ind AS 113 transposes IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement into the Indian accounting framework. The Kuselar Nagar Porur taxpayer or company engaging with valuation must first identify which framework governs the exercise before any methodology selection.

The fair-value concept across statutes

The fair-value concept is not monolithic across the statutory landscape. Section 56(2)(viib) read with Rule 11UA defines fair market value through a prescribed mechanical formula in Rule 11UA(1)(c)(b) — book value of assets less liabilities, with specified adjustments — or through a discounted cash flow report under Rule 11UA(2) at the issuer's option. Ind AS 113 paragraph 9 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, with paragraph 24 elaborating the market-participant assumptions. IFRS 13 mirrors Ind AS 113 with identical core definition. The IBBI Valuation Standard 102 on valuation approaches adopts the IVS International Valuation Standards (RICS) framework, recognising market, income and cost approaches with sub-methodologies. The variation across statutes is not accidental — each framework serves a distinct policy purpose, and a single valuation report may need to address multiple definitions simultaneously where the same transaction triggers obligations under several statutes.

The methodological taxonomy in IVS 200 series

The International Valuation Standards 200 series on businesses and business interests, published by the IVS Council and adopted in modified form by IBBI through Valuation Standard 102, organises business-valuation methodologies into three approaches — the income approach (discounted cash flow, capitalisation of earnings), the market approach (guideline public-company method, comparable transaction method) and the cost approach (net asset value, adjusted book value). The standards do not prescribe a single methodology but require the valuer to select methodologies appropriate to the engagement, document the selection rationale, and triangulate the outputs. CFA Institute Equity Asset Valuation chapter on private company valuation provides a parallel framework with substantially overlapping methodology lists. Aswath Damodaran's framework on private company and start-up valuation extends the cost-of-capital build-up to incorporate size premia and specific-company-risk adjustments. The Kuselar Nagar Porur valuation engagement should select methodologies grounded in the IVS taxonomy with explicit reference to the applicable standard.

Rule 11UA framework and its two valuation routes

Recent amendments and the September 2023 reform

Notification 81/2023 dated 25 September 2023 introduced substantial reform to Rule 11UA following the Finance Act 2023 extension of Section 56(2)(viib) to non-residents. The amendments expanded the methodology choice for share issuance to non-residents to include — DCF, comparable companies multiples method, probability-weighted expected return method, option pricing method, milestone analysis method, and replacement cost method — recognising the methodological diversity in international venture capital practice. The reform also introduced a safe-harbour mechanism permitting deviation up to ten percent between the consideration and fair market value for non-resident issuances. The Kuselar Nagar Porur company raising non-resident funding post-September 2023 has substantially expanded methodology choice but must document the methodology selection rationale per IVS 200 series guidance and IBBI Valuation Standard 102 to support the assessment defence.

Rule 11UA(1)(c)(b) net asset value methodology

Rule 11UA(1)(c)(b) of the Income-tax Rules prescribes the fair market value of unquoted equity shares as the book value of assets minus the book value of liabilities, divided by the paid-up equity share capital, multiplied by the paid-up value of the equity share. The book values are taken from the audited balance sheet of the company as on the valuation date, with specified adjustments — exclusion of any amount paid as advance tax under Section 219, exclusion of any unamortised deferred expenditure not representing the value of any asset, and exclusion of any amount representing provision for taxation. The methodology is mechanical and produces a deterministic output once the balance sheet is finalised. The Kuselar Nagar Porur closely-held company electing this route benefits from computational clarity but accepts the underlying assumption that book values approximate fair values — an assumption that breaks down materially where intangible assets, undervalued real estate or appreciated investments dominate the asset side.

Rule 11UA(2) discounted cash flow route

Rule 11UA(2) permits a closely-held company to elect, at the time of issue of shares, fair market value computed by a merchant banker through the discounted free cash flow method as the alternative to the Rule 11UA(1)(c)(b) book-value approach. The election is exercisable only at issue and only for Section 56(2)(viib) purposes — it does not extend to Section 50CA transferor-side valuations. The Notification 1/2017 prescribed the merchant banker as the authorised professional, replacing the earlier inclusion of chartered accountants in the eligible professional list. Notification 81/2023 expanded the recognised valuation methodologies to include comparable companies and other approaches for non-resident issuances. The Kuselar Nagar Porur company contemplating premium issuance should evaluate the route choice against the underlying business profile — DCF route suits cash-flow-generating going concerns, whereas the book-value route may produce higher fair value for asset-heavy businesses with revalued land.

Section 56(2)(viib) angel tax framework

Burden of proof and assessment dynamics

The burden of establishing fair market value at or below the issue price rests with the issuer company in any Section 56(2)(viib) assessment. The Assessing Officer at scrutiny under Section 143(3) examines the Rule 11UA report, the underlying working papers, the projection realism against trailing operating performance, and the methodology selection rationale. Where the report fails to satisfy the officer, substitution of a downward-adjusted fair market value is the standard outcome, with the resulting differential charged under Section 56(2)(viib). The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal in several rulings has emphasised that the burden of dislodging the merchant-banker DCF report rests with the Department once the report is filed, but the report must itself satisfy methodological rigour. The Kuselar Nagar Porur company should approach the report-preparation phase with assessment-defence in mind rather than treat it as a procedural formality.

Cross-application with Section 56(2)(x) recipient-side

Section 56(2)(viib) operates on the issuer side, charging the issuer company on premium received above fair market value. Section 56(2)(x), introduced by the Finance Act 2017 replacing the earlier Section 56(2)(vii) and 56(2)(viia) framework, operates on the recipient side, charging any person receiving property without consideration or for inadequate consideration on the differential between fair market value and actual consideration. The two provisions can apply to the same transaction from opposite sides — the recipient of shares at a discount triggers Section 56(2)(x), and where the issuer is a closely-held company the share-premium accounting may simultaneously trigger Section 56(2)(viib). The Kuselar Nagar Porur company structuring share issuances or transfers must run both computations to identify exposures on both sides of the transaction.

Charging mechanism and scope of application

Section 56(2)(viib) of the Income-tax Act, inserted by the Finance Act 2012 and substantially expanded by the Finance Act 2023, charges any consideration received by a closely-held company for issue of shares that exceeds the fair market value of such shares as Income from Other Sources of the issuer company. The provision applies to the issuer, not to the investor. The charge crystallises in the year of issue and is computed as the differential between the aggregate consideration received and the aggregate fair market value of the shares issued. The Finance Act 2023 amendment extended the provision to non-resident investors, removing the earlier carve-out and capturing overseas-routed funding within the angel-tax net. The Kuselar Nagar Porur closely-held company raising premium funding from any investor category must therefore approach the valuation exercise with the Section 56(2)(viib) defence floor as a primary design consideration.

Discounted cash flow methodology under Rule 11UA(2)

Explicit period and terminal value bifurcation

The discounted cash flow methodology bifurcates the projection horizon into an explicit period (typically five to ten years) and a terminal-value tail. The explicit period captures growth-stage dynamics with line-by-line projection, whereas the terminal value captures the stable-growth perpetuity computed through the Gordon growth model or an exit-multiple approach. The CFA Institute framework on private-company valuation notes that terminal value typically contributes sixty to eighty percent of enterprise value in growth-stage businesses, and methodology discipline at the terminal stage is critical. The IBBI Valuation Standard 102 requires explicit documentation of terminal-value methodology selection. The Kuselar Nagar Porur valuer should cap the perpetual growth rate at the long-term risk-free yield prevailing on the valuation date, with the working paper documenting the cap selection rationale.

Discount rate build-up and the cost of capital

The discount rate in firm-level discounted cash flow is the weighted average cost of capital, computed as the weighted average of cost of equity (per the capital asset pricing model build-up — risk-free rate plus equity risk premium times beta) and cost of debt (post-tax). For private companies, the Damodaran framework adds a size premium (per Ibbotson size-decile data) and a specific-company-risk premium reflecting key-person dependence, customer concentration and other firm-specific factors. The CFA Institute private-company chapter prescribes a build-up approach that aggregates these adjustments. The IBBI Valuation Standard 102 requires explicit documentation of each component. The Kuselar Nagar Porur valuer should ground the risk-free rate in the ten-year government security yield on the valuation date, the equity risk premium in the most recent Damodaran or PWC India market-risk-premium study, and the beta in industry-comparable data from CMIE or Bloomberg.

Sensitivity analysis and valuation range

Single-point discounted cash flow output is methodologically inadequate under IBBI Valuation Standard 102 and Ind AS 113 fair-value-disclosure requirements. The standard requires sensitivity analysis on key inputs — revenue growth rates, operating margin, discount rate, terminal growth rate — to demonstrate the value range and the reasonableness of the point estimate. The CFA Institute framework on private-company valuation recommends Monte Carlo simulation where multiple inputs are uncertain, with the resulting probability distribution informing the point-estimate selection. The Damodaran framework provides templates for two-way sensitivity tables. The Kuselar Nagar Porur valuer's working paper should include at least a two-way sensitivity matrix on the discount rate and terminal growth rate, with the point estimate justified against the matrix range.

Glossary

Plain-English glossary for this service

CCA

Comparable Companies Analysis — relative-valuation approach using trading multiples (EV/EBITDA, EV/Sales, P/E) of listed peer companies. Requires careful screening for size, growth, profitability, and geography to ensure functional comparability.

Precedent Transactions

Precedent Transaction Analysis — relative-valuation approach using multiples observed in recent M&A transactions of similar businesses. Typically includes a control premium since transactions involve change-of-control, unlike CCA which uses minority-stake market prices.

NAV

Net Asset Value — book-based valuation method where equity value equals total assets minus total liabilities. Rule 11UA(1)(c)(b) prescribes book-NAV for unquoted equity in non-DCF contexts. Conservative floor for distress and holding-company valuations.

Marketability Discount

Discount for Lack of Marketability (DLOM) — reduction applied to the value of unlisted-company shares to reflect the absence of a ready market for sale. Indian valuation practice typically applies 20%-30% DLOM; ICAI Valuation Standard 103 governs.

Control Premium

Control Premium — premium paid over standalone fair value for acquiring a controlling stake (typically >50%). Reflects ability to direct operations, dividends and strategy. Indian M&A practice applies 20%-30% control premium based on Bloomberg M&A premium studies.

Section 56(2)(viib)

Section 56(2)(viib) — angel-tax provision taxing the excess of consideration received for issue of shares over FMV in the hands of the issuing company. A 10% deviation between issue price and FMV is permitted as safe-harbour under Rule 11UA second proviso.

DPIIT exemption

DPIIT-recognised startup angel-tax exemption — Notification GSR 127(E) read with Section 56(2)(viib) proviso exempts DPIIT-recognised startups from angel tax provided paid-up capital plus share premium does not exceed ₹25 crore and the investor satisfies specified criteria.

Section 50CA

Section 50CA — treats stamp-duty value as full value of consideration for transfer of unquoted shares where the actual consideration is less than the FMV computed under Rule 11UAA. Plugs the undervaluation route between related parties.

Rule 11UA(2)

Rule 11UA(2) — prescribes the methods for determining FMV of unquoted equity shares for Section 56(2)(viib) purposes: either NAV method under sub-rule (1)(c)(b) or DCF method by a Category-1 SEBI-registered merchant banker. The DCF report is valid for 90 days from the date of the report for share-issuance purposes.

DCF

Discounted Cash Flow Method — projects future free cash flows of a business over an explicit forecast period (typically 5 years) plus a terminal value, and discounts them to present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Prescribed under Rule 11UA(2)(b) for unlisted equity-share valuation by a Category-1 merchant banker.

FCFF

Free Cash Flow to Firm — cash flow available to all capital providers (equity and debt) before financing costs. Computed as EBIT(1-tax) + Depreciation - Capex - change in working capital. Discounted at WACC to arrive at enterprise value.

FCFE

Free Cash Flow to Equity — cash flow available to equity shareholders after meeting debt obligations. Computed as Net Income + Depreciation - Capex - change in working capital + net borrowings. Discounted at cost of equity to arrive directly at equity value.

By Industry

Industry-specific patterns in Kuselar Nagar Porur

How the local trade mix shapes this — Across Kuselar Nagar Porur, the cluster of residential, retail, small trade businesses that defines Kuselar Nagar Porur's commercial fabric.

Retail
Common issue: Multi-store retail chains raising follow-on funding often submit Rule 11UA(2) discounted cash flow reports without reconciling the explicit-period revenue projections against same-store sales growth disclosures in the management discussion and analysis. The disconnect between the projection narrative and the historical operating performance is a primary trigger for Section 56(2)(viib) angel-tax additions, with the Assessing Officer rejecting the unsupported growth and substituting a downward-adjusted fair market value.
How we handle it: Anchor the explicit-period revenue projection to disclosed same-store sales growth and new-store-opening cadence with separate line-item modelling; reconcile against the comparable companies multiple range for organised retail; document the projection-to-actual variance for the trailing four quarters in the Rule 11UA(2) working paper; align the discount rate with the weighted average cost of capital methodology in CFA Institute Equity Asset Valuation chapter on private company valuation.
Retail
Common issue: Retail entities transferring shares of subsidiary trading companies to family trusts at book value sometimes overlook the Section 56(2)(x) recipient-side taxation framework, which deems the recipient to have received property without consideration to the extent of the differential between the Rule 11UA fair market value and the actual consideration paid. The provision operates independently of the transferor-side Section 50CA charge, producing a parallel tax exposure that book-value transfers entirely ignore.
How we handle it: Run dual computation of transferor-side Section 50CA and recipient-side Section 56(2)(x) before finalising the transfer consideration; price the transfer at Rule 11UA fair market value to neutralise both charges; document the Rule 11UA(1)(c) computation with NAV adjusted to current values; consider the relative-transfer exemption under proviso to Section 56(2)(x) where the recipient is a relative as defined in Explanation to Section 56(2).
Small Trade
Common issue: Small trading entities operating below the Ind AS applicability threshold and reporting under IGAAP face challenges in transitioning to Ind AS 113 fair value measurement when raising private equity funding. The IGAAP balance sheet under AS 10 and AS 28 carries assets at historical cost adjusted for impairment, whereas Ind AS 113 demands a market-participant-based fair-value-hierarchy computation, and the absence of a parallel Ind AS computation produces Rule 11UA outputs that the Assessing Officer substitutes downward.
How we handle it: Prepare a parallel Ind AS 113 fair-value computation alongside the IGAAP financial statements for the valuation date; reconcile the IGAAP-to-Ind-AS-113 transition differences asset-by-asset; document the fair-value-hierarchy classification (Level 1 quoted, Level 2 observable, Level 3 unobservable) per Ind AS 113 paragraph 73; engage an IBBI-registered valuer with both IGAAP and Ind AS competence to ensure dual-framework consistency.
Pharmaceuticals
Common issue: Pharma groups with research-and-development tax-incentive claims under Section 35(2AB) sometimes overstate the recoverable carrying value of in-process research-and-development by failing to test for impairment under Ind AS 36. The annual impairment test on cash-generating units that include in-process R-and-D is mandatory under Ind AS 36 paragraph 10, and the absence of the test produces carrying values that overstate net asset value in any subsequent Rule 11UA(1)(c)(b) computation.
How we handle it: Perform annual impairment testing on in-process R-and-D at the cash-generating unit level per Ind AS 36 paragraph 80; compute recoverable amount as the higher of value-in-use and fair value less costs of disposal; reflect impairment write-downs in the financial statements prior to any Rule 11UA computation; document the impairment-test working paper in the valuation file to support Section 56(2)(viib) defence.
Plastics
Common issue: Plastic product manufacturers facing margin compression from polymer-price volatility often present forward-looking projections under Rule 11UA(2) that assume historical-average margins continuing through the explicit period. The IBBI Valuation Standard 102 on assumptions and limiting conditions requires explicit sensitivity testing on key drivers, and the absence of margin-sensitivity analysis produces single-point valuations that fail Ind AS 113 fair-value-disclosure requirements for Level 3 inputs.
How we handle it: Perform margin-sensitivity analysis with polymer-price scenarios spanning the historical volatility band; compute the discounted cash flow under each scenario and present the value range with probability weighting; document the sensitivity matrix in the Rule 11UA(2) working paper per IBBI Valuation Standard 102; align the disclosure with Ind AS 113 paragraph 93 quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs.

Valuation FAQ — Kuselar Nagar Porur

Common questions from Kuselar Nagar Porur clients. Call 9566-068-468 for specific queries.

The Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules 2017 prescribe three asset classes — (i) Securities or Financial Assets (covers shares, debentures, derivatives, business equity, intangibles); (ii) Land and Building (covers immovable property valuation); (iii) Plant and Machinery (covers movable plant, equipment, vehicles). For a business valuation involving share or equity opinion, a Registered Valuer in the Securities or Financial Assets class is required. Valuation of underlying land or plant requires the corresponding asset-class valuer.
The SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations 2011 — Regulation 8 — prescribe the open offer price as the highest of (i) negotiated price under the SPA; (ii) volume-weighted average price paid by the acquirer in the 52 weeks preceding the PA; (iii) highest price paid in the 26 weeks preceding the PA; (iv) volume-weighted average market price for 60 trading days. For infrequently traded shares, parameters from Regulation 8(2)(e) including book value, comparable company multiples and DCF are considered, supported by a Merchant Banker / Registered Valuer report.
Our main office is at Plot No. 6, Alapakkam Main Road (opposite KVB Bank), Maduravoyal – 600095, with a branch at No. 22 Reddy Street, Nerkundram – 600107. Both are an easy reach from Kuselar Nagar Porur, and a third office at Nolambur is opening shortly. Most clients, though, never need to visit.
Yes. The Finance (No. 2) Act 2024 omitted the proviso under Section 56(2)(viib) of the Income-tax Act 1961 with effect from 1 April 2025 — i.e. the angel-tax provision does NOT apply to consideration received for shares issued by a closely-held company on or after 1 April 2025 (FY 2025-26 and onwards). For consideration received up to 31 March 2025, Section 56(2)(viib) read with Rule 11UA(2) continued to apply, including to non-residents from 1 April 2024 (FY 2024-25) under the Finance Act 2023 expansion. A valuation report is still advisable for governance, share-allotment defence, and transfer-pricing reasons.
WACC = (E/V × Ke) + (D/V × Kd × (1 - T)). Cost of equity Ke is built via CAPM: Ke = Rf + β × MRP, where Rf is the 10-year G-Sec yield (~7% currently), β is the levered beta benchmarked from listed Indian peers and re-levered to the target capital structure (Hamada formula), and MRP (equity risk premium for India) is typically taken at 6 - 8% per Damodaran's country-risk database. Kd is the post-tax cost of debt — pre-tax borrowing cost × (1 - 25.17% / 22% / 17.16% effective tax rate per Section 115BAA / 115BAB applicable).
Your engagement is handled by our in-house team led by Ravivarman R (Founder, 15+ years, 500+ engagements), with M. E. Chokkalingam on compliance and S. Jayaprakash on GST matters. You deal with named, qualified people throughout your Business Valuation — not a call centre.
Section 50CA of the Income-tax Act 1961 deems the FMV of unquoted shares as the consideration for capital gains where the actual transfer price is lower than FMV. Rule 11UAA prescribes the FMV computation — for unquoted equity shares, NAV method as on the valuation date; for unquoted shares other than equity, the price they would fetch in the open market with a Merchant Banker / Chartered Accountant report. Section 50CA covers the transferor; Section 56(2)(x) covers the transferee where shares are received below FMV by more than ₹50,000.
Where six or more comparables are available, Rule 10CA prescribes the Range concept — the arm's length range is the 35th percentile to 65th percentile of comparable prices / margins. The transfer price falling within the range is at arm's length; otherwise the median is taken. Where fewer than six comparables, the older arithmetic mean ±3% (manufacturing wholesale) / ±1% (other) tolerance applies. Indian APAs under Section 92CC and Safe Harbour Rules under Rule 10TA-10TG offer ex-ante certainty for specified transactions.
Absolutely. Most Kuselar Nagar Porur clients complete the entire Valuation process remotely — we collect documents on WhatsApp or email, share drafts for your approval, and file on your behalf. A visit to our Maduravoyal office is optional, never required.
NAV method values equity at the audited book value of net assets attributable to equity shareholders. Under Rule 11UA(1)(c)(b), the formula is (A + B + C + D - L) × PE / PV — where A is book value of assets (excluding certain intangibles and deferred expenses), B/C/D are jewellery/artistic-work/shares-and-securities at FMV, L is liabilities (excluding paid-up capital, reserves and provisions for deferred / contingent liabilities), PE is paid-up equity, PV is paid-up value. NAV is appropriate for asset-heavy companies, holding companies, real estate vehicles and liquidation scenarios.
Rule 13 of the Companies (Share Capital and Debentures) Rules 2014, read with Section 62(1)(c) of the Companies Act 2013, requires preferential allotment of shares to be at a price not less than the price determined by a Registered Valuer. The valuation report must accompany the explanatory statement to the special resolution and be placed before the Board. Non-compliance can be challenged by minority shareholders and exposes directors under Section 447 (fraud) where the valuation is found to be predetermined to undervalue equity.
Yes. Along with Kuselar Nagar Porur, we serve Porur and the wider Chennai West belt for Business Valuation. Wherever you are in this part of Chennai, the process and our 9566-068-468 line stay the same.
Post-tax Kd = pre-tax interest cost × (1 - effective tax rate). Pre-tax cost is the marginal borrowing rate (latest sanction / RBI MCLR-linked rate / coupon on listed bonds). Effective tax rate is 25.17% under Section 115BAA, 17.16% under Section 115BAB or 25%/30% under regular regime. Section 36(1)(iii) makes interest deductible for the borrower, so the after-tax adjustment is real. Where debt is partially convertible, the debt and equity components are split and weighted.
Control premium is the additional value a buyer pays to obtain control over the target's strategic decisions, capital allocation, dividend policy and synergies. Empirical Indian M&A data and Mergerstat international studies place control premia in the 25 - 30% band over minority traded prices. ICVS 103 requires explicit disclosure of control assumptions. Where comparable transactions implicitly contain control premium, the multiple is used as-is for valuing a controlling stake; for valuing a minority stake the multiple is reduced.
Section 17(2)(vi) treats the difference between FMV on the date of exercise and exercise price as a perquisite. The employer is required to deduct TDS under Section 192 on this perquisite. Rule 3(8) prescribes FMV — for listed shares, average of opening and closing price on a recognised stock exchange on the exercise date; for unlisted shares, the value determined by a Merchant Banker on the specified date (date of exercise or any earlier date not more than 180 days). Eligible startups under Section 80-IAC enjoy deferred ESOP perquisite taxation under Section 192(1C).
Section 68 of the Companies Act 2013 read with the Companies (Share Capital and Debentures) Rules 2014 governs share buy-back. Section 115QA of the Income-tax Act levies buy-back tax of 20% (plus surcharge and cess) on the distributed income — until 30 September 2024. From 1 October 2024 (Finance (No. 2) Act 2024), buy-back proceeds are taxed in the hands of the shareholder as deemed dividend under Section 2(22)(f). A Registered Valuer report supports the buy-back price under Rule 17 — used to demonstrate fair-value compliance and to justify the price to dissenting shareholders.
