CA Net Worth Certificate in India – Visa, Tender, Bank Loan, Investor & Director Eligibility – Schedule III Computation, UDIN-Backed Certification, ICAI Guidance Note & Section 2(57) Companies Act 2013 – Individuals, Proprietorships, LLPs, Private & Public Companies

A Net Worth Certificate is a formal document issued by a practising Chartered Accountant (CA) on his / her letterhead, certifying the net worth of an individual, sole-proprietorship, partnership firm, LLP, HUF, or company as on a specific date. Net worth is defined as Total Assets – Total Liabilities; for companies, Section 2(57) of the Companies Act 2013 defines it as paid-up share capital + free reserves – accumulated losses, deferred expenditure, and miscellaneous expenditure not written off.

A CA-certified Net Worth Certificate is required for visa applications (Tier-1 / F-1 / spouse / dependent / Schengen / UK / US / Canada / Australia), tender bidding, bank loans, government schemes, investor / lender diligence, director eligibility, court / tribunal filings, and family-office reporting. Every such certificate must carry a UDIN (Unique Document Identification Number) generated on the ICAI portal — without UDIN, the certificate is treated as invalid. Our CA-certified Net Worth Certificate services cover document collation, valuation, computation, drafting, and issuance with UDIN — usually within 1–3 working days.
