Business Valuations Services
At SouthAsia Research & Corporate Advisory Ltd (SRCA), business valuation is not treated as a mechanical calculation, it is a disciplined advisory exercise that supports strategic decisions, protects stakeholder interests, and withstands scrutiny from investors, lenders, regulators, courts, and boards.
Our business valuation services are designed to deliver independent, defensible, and decision-grade valuations aligned with internationally recognized standards and real-world transaction dynamics. Whether the objective is fundraising, M&A, restructuring, dispute resolution, regulatory compliance, or internal strategic planning, SRCA provides valuations that are credible, transparent, and purpose-driven.
We do not merely determine value, we explain it, justify it, and place it in the proper strategic context.
Business Valuation Standards and Professional Framework
SRCA conducts all valuation engagements in alignment with globally accepted valuation and financial reporting standards, ensuring consistency, credibility, and acceptance across jurisdictions and stakeholder groups.
Our valuation work is guided by, as applicable:

-
Shareholder alignment and dispute prevention

A well-prepared valuation provides insight into why a business is worth what it is, and what must change to improve that value.

Key Valuation Approaches Applied by SRCA
SRCA applies internationally accepted valuation methodologies, carefully selecting the most appropriate approach based on the nature of the business, industry characteristics, data availability, and the specific purpose of the valuation engagement.
Income Approach
The Income Approach evaluates a business based on its ability to generate future economic benefits. This approach focuses on projected cash flows and earnings potential, reflecting the sustainability and risk profile of the business.
Key applications include:
-
Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis
-
Capitalization of earnings or cash flows
This approach is particularly relevant for going-concern businesses with predictable operating performance.
Market Approach
The Market Approach determines value by benchmarking the subject business against comparable publicly traded companies or recent market transactions within the same or similar industries.
Key considerations include:
-
Comparable company and transaction analysis
-
Application of market-derived pricing multiples
-
Reflection of prevailing market conditions and investor sentiment
This approach provides an external, market-based perspective on value.
Asset-Based Approach
The Asset-Based Approach assesses value based on the fair value of a company’s underlying assets, net of liabilities.
This approach is commonly applied in:
-
Asset-intensive businesses
-
Holding companies
-
Distressed or liquidation scenarios
It provides a balance-sheet-focused view of value where earnings-based approaches may be less appropriate.
Each valuation approach has inherent strengths and limitations. SRCA ensures that valuation methodology selection is well-justified, assumptions are transparent and defensible, and conclusions are logically reconciled to arrive at a credible and decision-ready valuation outcome.
