The Rules provide for registration of different category of valuers and lay down the requirements on their eligibility, qualifications and experience.

The Registered Valuers are also required to be members of the Registered Valuers Organisations (RVOs), recognised by the authority under the Rules.

The Rules provide for a transition period upto March 31, 2018 for registration of valuers with the authority keeping in view the period which will be required by the valuers organisations and the valuers to fulfil the requirements under the law.

During this transition period any person who may be rendering valuation services under the Companies Act, 2013 may continue to render such services without getting registered under the Rules.
