NGO & Charitable Trust Registrations
Formalize your charitable mission with the right registrations — 12A, 80G, Darpan, and more — handled by experts in non-profit compliance.
Our NGO Registrations Services
Complete registration and compliance services for NGOs, charitable trusts, and societies — enabling tax exemptions, donation eligibility, and government recognition.
12A Registration
Section 12A registration grants income tax exemption to trusts, societies, and NGOs on income applied for charitable or religious purposes. We prepare and file the registration application on the Income Tax portal (Form 10A), respond to deficiencies raised by the CIT (Exemptions), and obtain the provisional or final registration certificate. Without this, the organization pays full tax on all receipts.
- Form 10A application preparation and filing
- Trust deed and objectives review for eligibility
- CIT (Exemptions) deficiency response
- Provisional and final 12A registration
- Re-registration for existing 12A holders
80G Registration
Section 80G registration allows donors to claim income tax deductions on their donations to the NGO, making the organization more attractive to individual and corporate donors. We file Form 10G on the Income Tax portal, assist in demonstrating applied-for charitable purposes, and handle all correspondence with the CIT (Exemptions) for granting of approval.
- Form 10G application for 80G approval
- Donor-facing 80G certificate issuance support
- CIT (Exemptions) correspondence handling
- Renewal and re-registration of 80G approval
- CSR donor receipt format preparation
Tax Residency Certificate
A Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) is issued by the Income Tax department and is required for NGOs and organizations claiming DTAA benefits or receiving foreign contributions. We assist in obtaining TRC on Form 10FA from the Assessing Officer, with proper documentation of the entity's residential status and income sources.
- Form 10FA TRC application preparation
- Assessing Officer coordination for issuance
- DTAA benefit claim documentation
- Annual TRC renewal assistance
- Foreign contribution compliance coordination
Darpan Registration
NGO Darpan registration on the NITI Aayog portal is mandatory for NGOs and societies applying for government grants and CSR funds. We handle the complete registration process, upload required documents, and obtain the Darpan unique ID. This registration also improves the organization's credibility and transparency to donors.
- NITI Aayog Darpan portal registration

- CSR-1 form filing support for CSR funding
Trust Registration
A charitable or private trust is created by a trust deed and must be registered with the Sub-Registrar under the Indian Trusts Act or relevant state trust legislation. We draft the trust deed covering objectives, trustees, beneficiaries, and governing rules, arrange for stamp duty payment, and register the deed with the appropriate authority.
- Trust deed drafting and vetting
- Stamp duty computation and payment
- Sub-Registrar registration and deed execution
- Trustee appointment and resignation documentation
- Trust property management documentation
Society Registration
Societies registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 are commonly used for charitable, educational, literary, and social welfare activities. We prepare the Memorandum of Association, Rules and Regulations, and file the application with the Registrar of Societies in the relevant state. We also handle annual filings and amendment registrations.
- Memorandum of Association and bylaws drafting
- Society registration with Registrar of Societies
- Managing Committee and officer documentation
- Annual list of managing body filing
