Valuer Partner Terms

Effective and last updated 2026-09-06.

These Valuer Partner Terms apply in addition to our general Terms of Service to anyone who creates an account and submits a listing on ValuerDekho as a registered valuer, IBBI Registered Valuer, Chartered Engineer, Chartered Accountant, or firm ("you," "valuer"). Where these Terms conflict with the general Terms of Service on a matter specific to listing, these Terms govern.

1. Eligibility

You may create a valuer account only if you hold, and keep current, at least one of the following as relevant to the purposes you list for:

• Registration as a valuer under Section 514 of the Income-tax Act, 2025 (or, during the transition period, a valid Section 34AB certificate together with the Form 169 acknowledgement due by 30 September 2026)
• Registration as an IBBI Registered Valuer in the relevant asset class
• Membership as a Chartered Engineer with the Institution of Engineers (India) or an equivalent recognised body
• Membership as a practising Chartered Accountant with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, entitled to issue a UDIN

You confirm that you are entitled to offer the services you list, in the cities and for the purposes you state, under applicable law.

2. Accuracy of your listing

You are solely responsible for the accuracy of everything in your listing, including your registration type and number, cities and purposes covered, fee band, turnaround, languages, and any strengths or description you write. You must keep this information current and promptly correct it if it changes (for example, if a registration lapses, is renewed, or is re-issued under Section 514). Submitting false, misleading or outdated information is a breach of these Terms and may lead to your listing being paused or removed without notice.

3. Verification and status

Before we mark a listing "verified," our team reviews the registration documents you submit. A listing may show one of four statuses:

• Pending: submitted, awaiting our review, and not yet shown on public pages
• Approved: live on the Platform. We approve a listing only after we have seen your registration documents, so every published profile is one we have checked
• Paused: temporarily hidden, at our discretion or at your request
• Rejected: not published, with a note where feasible explaining why

We may ask you for further documents at any time, including to re-verify a listing periodically, and we may change a listing's status at our discretion if we believe the information is inaccurate, the registration has lapsed, or you have breached these Terms.

4. No guarantee of leads or business

A listing, including a "verified" one, is not a guarantee of enquiries, leads, engagements or income. Being shortlisted for a property owner's enquiry depends on matching their stated purpose and city to your listing; we do not guarantee inclusion in every relevant shortlist.

5. Fees

A basic verified listing is currently free for firms who complete verification before 31 December 2026. We may introduce paid listing tiers, lead fees or featured placements in future. Where we do, we will publish the applicable fees on the For valuers page and give existing account holders reasonable advance notice before any new or increased fee applies to their account; you may close your account rather than accept a new fee.

6. Your relationship with property owners

ValuerDekho introduces you to a property owner; we are not a party to, and take no responsibility for, the engagement, scope, fee, timeline, contract or outcome that follows. You are solely responsible for your own professional services, the accuracy and quality of any report or certificate you issue, and compliance with your own professional and regulatory obligations, including the statutory fee ceiling under Rule 248 of the Income-tax Rules, 2026 for income-tax purpose reports.

7. Independent contractor status

You are an independent professional or firm, not an employee, agent, partner or franchisee of ValuerDekho. You have no authority to bind ValuerDekho to any obligation, and nothing in these Terms creates an employment, partnership or agency relationship.

8. Confidentiality and use of leads

When we share a property owner's enquiry with you, you may use their contact details only for that specific engagement. You must not add them to a marketing list, share their details with a third party, or contact them for anything unrelated to the enquiry, without their separate, explicit consent. You must handle any personal data you receive in line with applicable data protection law, including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

9. Reviews and disclosure

Where a listed firm is affiliated with ValuerDekho's owners, we disclose this on the firm's public profile. We only publish reviews we can reasonably attribute to a real, dated client interaction; we do not publish unverifiable testimonials.

10. Termination

You may close your account at any time by contacting us. We may suspend, pause or terminate your account and remove your listing at any time for breach of these Terms, the general Terms of Service, loss of your professional registration, or where we reasonably believe it necessary to protect property owners, the Platform or the public. On termination, your listing is removed from public pages; we may retain records as described in our Privacy Policy.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold ValuerDekho harmless from any claim, liability, loss or expense arising from your professional services, any report or certificate you issue, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or a third party's rights.

12. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of India, and disputes are resolved as set out in the "Governing law and dispute resolution" section of our Terms of Service, which applies equally here.
