Choice of Valuation Approaches “Value in Valuation is a question, and Your choice of Method is the first step towards answer” Applicability of a particular approach depends upon: On whose behalf? – one buyer vs another buyer, buyer vs seller; For what purpose? – independent strategic acquisition, group company consolidation, cross border transaction; When? – distress situation, industry downturn, boom etc; Corporate Valuations – Techniques & 20/12/2013 Application

Choice of Valuation Approaches • In General, Income Approach is preferred;  The dominance of profits for valuation of share was emphasised in “ McCathies case” (Taxation, 69 CLR 1) where it was said that “the real value of shares in a company will depend more on the profits which the company has been making and should be capable of making , having regard to the nature of its business, than upon the amount which the shares would realise on liquidation” .  This was also re-iterated by the Indian Courts in Commissioner of Wealth Tax v. Mahadeo Jalan’s case (S.C.) (86 ITR 621) and Additional Commissioner of Gift Tax v. Kusumben D. Mahadevia (S.C.) (122 ITR 38). • However, Asset Approach is preferred in case of Asset heavy companies and on liquidation; • Market Approach is preferred in case of listed entity and to evaluate the value of unlisted company by comparing it with its listed peers; Corporate Valuations – Techniques & 20/12/2013 Application
