Bharat's Guide to Valuation Examination (Theory with MCQs) – Asset Class: Land & Building, by S. K. Pandab (3rd Edition 2027)

Bharat Law House publishes the Third Edition (2027) of S. K. Pandab's Guide to Valuation Examination (Theory with MCQs) for the Land & Building asset class. It runs to 680 pages and pairs the theory of every syllabus head with the multiple-choice practice the examination demands.

The Registered Valuer Examination conducted by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India is the route to registration as a valuer under the Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules, 2017. Land & Building is the asset class most civil engineers, architects and surveyors take, and its syllabus is unusually wide — economics and accountancy at one end, environmental issues, insurance and report writing at the other. This guide is built to be read through once and then used as a question bank.

Contents

1. Principles of Economics.
2. Book Keeping and Accountancy.
3. General Laws — the statutory framework a valuer works within.
4. Introduction to Statistics.
5. Environmental Issues in Valuation.
6. Professional Ethics and Standards.
7. Laws Related to Real Estate — including the regulatory regime governing land and development.

9. Principles of Insurance and Loss Assessment.
10. Report Writing — the form and content of a valuation report.
11. Important Case Laws on Principles of Valuation of Real Estate.
12. Case Studies.
13. Self-Test Questions.
14. Model Question Papers issued by the IBBI — the old 2022 syllabus paper, the old 2024 syllabus paper and the current 2026 syllabus paper, so the shift in pattern across three syllabi can be seen directly.
