Works of Art Wealth Tax Valuation in India

A2Z Valuers provides Government Approved Works of Art Valuation for paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs, prints, antiques, archaeological collections and other valuable cultural assets requiring professional Fair Market Value assessment.

The valuation is undertaken within the applicable Section 34AB registered valuer framework, with the valuation focused on the specific asset, valuation date, provenance, condition, market evidence and the purpose for which the FMV certificate is required.

Works of art can represent a significant component of a high-net-worth individual's asset portfolio. Establishing a properly supported Fair Market Value is therefore important for Schedule AL disclosure, wealth-related valuation requirements, estate matters, taxation and other statutory or institutional purposes.
