Frequently Asked Regulatory & Compliance Questions

Authoritative insights structured for executive boards, corporate proprietors, and regulatory compliance

1

Why is a DCF valuation report mandatory under Income Tax Rule 11UA?

Under Section 56(2)(viib) of the Income-tax Act, 2025 (Section 56(2)(viib) of Income-tax Act, 1961) (commonly referred to as Angel Tax provisions), when a closely held company issues shares to any person at a price exceeding the face value of such shares, the aggregate consideration received in excess of the Fair Market Value (FMV) is treated as taxable income under the head 'Income from Other Sources'. Income Tax Rule 11UA(2)(b) permits the company to substantiate FMV through a Discounted Free Cash Flow (DCF) valuation report certified by an authorized valuer.
Key Takeaway: A compliant Rule 11UA DCF report shields startups and expanding companies from crippling angel tax assessments.
2

What is the scope of Buy-Side Financial Due Diligence (FDD) conducted by Kinsmen?

Kinsmen's Buy-Side Financial Due Diligence rigorously examines: (1) Quality of Earnings (QoE) through EBITDA normalizations, (2) Net debt and working capital adjustments (peg analysis), (3) Undisclosed contingent tax liabilities across direct and indirect taxes, (4) Related-party transaction arms-length pricing, and (5) Customer churn risk.
Key Takeaway: A thorough FDD dossier prevents buyers from overpaying or inheriting hidden tax liabilities.
