Valuation Services

Valuation is the process of determining the fair or market value of a business, its shares, or its assets, and Bansal S S & Co provides this service for companies across India from our base in Siliguri. Whether you need a valuation to close a transaction, satisfy a regulator, or support an internal decision, our valuations are built on defensible methodology and documented reasoning — not just a number handed over with no working behind it.

What We Offer

Business Valuation

Business valuation determines the overall worth of a company as a going concern, typically using a combination of income, market, and asset-based approaches depending on the nature and stage of the business. We use this for owners planning a sale, a fundraise, a buyout, or simply wanting an informed view of where their business stands.

Share Valuation

Share valuation determines the fair value of equity shares or other securities in a company, commonly needed for transactions between related parties, buybacks, rights issues, or transfers of shares in unlisted companies. We prepare these with the supporting workings documented clearly enough to stand up to scrutiny from counterparties, auditors, or tax authorities.

Valuation for Regulatory & Compliance Purposes

Certain transactions in India require a valuation report from a qualified valuer before they can be executed or reported — including share issuances and transfers under the Companies Act, cross-border investment and divestment transactions under FEMA, and valuations required for income tax reporting on the issue or transfer of unquoted shares. We keep our approach aligned with whichever specific rule or notification governs the transaction at the time, since valuation compliance requirements are updated periodically.

Valuation for M&A and Transactions

Transaction valuation supports mergers, acquisitions, demergers, and slump sales, where the valuation often directly determines the exchange ratio, purchase consideration, or swap ratio between parties. We work alongside legal and transaction advisors so the valuation holds up as a negotiation reference point, not just a compliance formality.

Purchase Price Allocation (PPA)

Purchase price allocation is the exercise of allocating the total consideration paid in an acquisition across the acquired company’s identifiable assets and liabilities, including intangibles like brand, customer relationships, or technology, for financial reporting purposes. We prepare PPA workings that are built to hold up under statutory audit review.

ESOP & Sweat Equity Valuation

ESOP valuation determines the fair value of shares underlying an employee stock option plan at the time of grant, which feeds directly into a company’s accounting for employee compensation expense. We handle this for both early-stage companies setting up their first ESOP pool and established companies refreshing valuations for ongoing grants.

Why Bansal S S & Co

Valuation numbers only matter if they hold up when someone pushes back on them — a counterparty negotiating a swap ratio, an auditor reviewing a PPA, or a tax officer questioning a share transfer price. Since 2017, we’ve prepared valuations that have gone through exactly those conversations, which shapes how we build a report: assumptions are documented clearly enough to defend line by line, not buried in a black-box model. We also track the specific rules governing valuation under FEMA, the Companies Act, and income tax closely, so a valuation we sign off on today is built against the requirement as it stands now, not as it stood when we last did a similar assignment.

Who This Is For

Startups and growth-stage companies come to us for ESOP valuations and fundraise-related valuations; companies going through a merger, acquisition, or slump sale need transaction valuations and purchase price allocations; and closely-held or family-owned businesses often need share valuations for transfers, buybacks, or succession planning between related parties. If your need falls outside these, it’s still worth a conversation — most valuation requirements trace back to one of these situations.

If you need a valuation you can stand behind — with a counterparty, an auditor, or a regulator — talk to our valuation team about your requirement.
