Intangible Asset & IP Valuation for India and Singapore-Linked Transactions

Direct Answer

What does intangible asset and IP valuation for Indian and Singapore investors in the UAE cover? It is an independent fair value estimate of brands, patents, technology and customer relationships, prepared to IVS and IFRS 3 with a reconciliation to Ind AS or SFRS(I) reporting where needed. It supports IP holding structures, purchase price allocation and group reporting. Corvian Advisory provides it from Dubai as UAE-based valuation advice for Indian and Singapore investors and India and Singapore-linked transactions, through a CFA-led team with 15+ years of Big 4 experience. Fixed fee from INR 3,50,000, typically 3–6 weeks.

Independent, IVS-aligned and IFRS 3-compliant valuation of intangible assets for Indian promoter groups, Singapore-based funds and regional holding companies with UAE operations. Cross-border IP ownership and technology-led businesses are the main themes, and every report is signed by CFA, CA and ACCA qualified practitioners.

Senior-Led Intangible Asset Valuation for India and Singapore Investors in the UAE

A CFA Charterholder and Chartered Accountant with Big 4 experience leads each engagement. Our chartered accountants are comfortable with Indian and IFRS-style financials, so reconciliations are handled inside the team.

Many India and Singapore-linked mandates involve IP that sits in one entity and is used in several, so we spend time on which entity owns, develops and uses the asset.

Scope of Our Valuation Work

Corvian Advisory provides UAE-based valuation advice to Indian and Singapore investors and on India and Singapore-linked transactions, prepared to IVS and IFRS 3. We are not registered valuers in India and Singapore. Where a statutory or regulatory valuation specific to India and Singapore is required, we work alongside a locally authorised valuer and coordinate our analysis with theirs.

Methodology

How We Value Intangibles: Relief-from-Royalty, MPEEM & Cost Approach

For India and Singapore-linked groups, the central question is often who owns and funds the IP. We value the asset first, then show how ownership assumptions affect its value.

Income Approach

Relief-from-Royalty

Royalties avoided by owning a brand, patent or technology, benchmarked against Asian, GCC and international licence data.

Income Approach

Multi-Period Excess Earnings (MPEEM)

Attributes cash flow to the primary intangible after contributory asset charges, used for technology, customer relationships and in-process research.

Cost Approach

Replacement & Reproduction Cost

Cost to recreate software and technology assets, adjusted for obsolescence, used alone or as a floor value.

Market Approach

Licence Benchmarking

Comparable licensing agreements and IP transactions used to test royalty rates and value multiples.

Do you also provide purchase price allocation and impairment testing for India and Singapore-linked deals?
Yes. We prepare IFRS 3 purchase price allocations and IAS 36 impairment tests, and value the underlying brands, technology, customer relationships and other intangibles in the same engagement, so the numbers reconcile from acquisition to reporting.
