Handbook on Enterprise Valuation

In today's rapidly evolving economic and regulatory landscape, Enterprise Valuation has become an indispensable tool for businesses, investors, insolvency professionals, regulators and financial institutions. Valuation is no longer confined to determine the price of an asset; it has evolved into a comprehensive discipline that integrates finance, law, economics, technology, analytics and professional judgement.

This book has been designed to provide a practical and conceptual understanding of Enterprise Valuation in a structured and reader-friendly manner. It covers the core principles of Valuation along with contemporary developments such as ESG considerations, data valuation, insolvency valuation under the IBC framework, Valuation Standards, financial modelling, synergistic value, and Valuation in litigation and arbitration matters.

The book blends theoretical concepts with practical illustrations, judicial precedents, regulatory perspectives, and real-world case studies to help readers understand not only how Valuation is conducted, but also why certain Valuation approaches are adopted in different situations.

Some emphasis has been placed on developing a holistic perspective by integrating financial, legal, technological and strategic dimensions of Valuation. The content has been curated to benefit students, Registered Valuers, Finance professionals, insolvency practitioners, academicians, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Enterprise Valuation practice.

By combining clarity, practical relevance, and professional insight, this book aims to serve as a meaningful guide in understanding the science, art and evolving relevance of Valuation in the modern business environment.
