Registered Valuer Certificate: What It Proves & How to Verify One
A Registered Valuer Certificate, formally a Certificate of Registration issued under the IBBI Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules, confirms that a professional or entity has completed the required education, experience, training and exam requirements and is authorized to value a specific asset class. Axium Valuation Services LLP holds an IBBI Entity Registration Certificate (IBBI/RV-E/04/2021/144), covering both the Land & Building and Plant & Machinery asset classes; Axium's partners individually hold their own Registered Valuer Certificates as well.
What the certificate actually confirms
The certificate is issued under Section 247 of the Companies Act 2013 and confirms registration for a specific asset class: Land & Building, Plant & Machinery, or Securities & Financial Assets, not a general valuation qualification. It is distinct from a Certificate of Practice, which some professional bodies issue separately; the Registered Valuer Certificate specifically confirms IBBI registration status for the named asset class. See our companion guide, What Is an IBBI Registered Valuer?, and Axium's own registrations.
How the certificate is obtained
In general terms, the path to a Registered Valuer Certificate involves meeting IBBI's education and experience requirements for the relevant asset class, completing recognised training, passing the applicable valuation examination, and then registering with IBBI. This summary is provided for context only; Axium is a practising valuation firm, not an exam-preparation or training provider, and the exact current requirements should be confirmed against IBBI's published rules.
How to verify a firm's registered valuer certificate
The most reliable way to confirm a certificate is genuine is to check the registration number directly against IBBI's public registry, or to request the certificate directly from the firm. A genuine certificate states the registration number, the specific asset class covered, and its validity. Axium's Entity Registration Certificate is available on request and verifiable against the public registry.
