Frequently asked questions
What are the main ways to register an NGO in India?
Common forms are public charitable trust, society, and Section 8 company. Choice depends on geography, funding (domestic vs foreign), and governance style. We recommend the right vehicle and handle formation filings.
How do I get 12A and 80G registration for donations?
After formation, NGOs can apply to the Income Tax Department for 12A (tax exemption) and 80G (donor deduction). Timelines and documentation are strict—we coordinate with your CA on application packs.
Can an NGO run a commercial activity?
Related business income is possible if it advances objects and stays within law. Unrelated business income can affect exemptions—we structure activities and accounts accordingly.
What documents are needed to register a society or trust?
Typically memorandum/rules or trust deed, founder IDs, address proof, and registrar fees. State rules vary—we prepare drafts and liaison for registration certificates.
Do you help with CSR grant readiness?
Yes. We align registration, governance minutes, programme KPIs, and audit readiness so corporate CSR partners can onboard you faster.
