Specialized Trust And NGO Accounting Services in Goregaon
Public charitable trusts, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), Section 8 companies, and educational institutions operate on a foundation of altruism and public trust. However, recent amendments in India's Income Tax Act, mandatory re-registration under Section 12AB, strict 85% fund utilization norms, and rigorous scrutiny by the Charity Commissioner make compliance a high-stakes priority. Our dedicated Trust And NGO Accounting Services in Goregaon preserve your tax-exempt status, ensure impeccable governance, and uphold donor confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is Form 10BD and why is it critical for NGOs issuing 80G receipts?
Form 10BD is an annual statement of donations that every organization registered under Section 80G must file electronically on or before May 31st following the financial year. Based on this filing, donors receive Form 10BE and can claim tax deductions in their individual ITRs. Failing to file Form 10BD attracts a late fee of ₹200 per day under Section 234G.
Can an NGO in Goregaon accept anonymous donations?
Under Section 115BBC of the Income Tax Act, anonymous donations (where the donor's identity, PAN, or address is not maintained) exceeding higher of 5% of total donations or ₹1,00,000 are taxed at a flat rate of 30%. Religious trusts have exemptions under certain conditions, but purely charitable trusts must maintain complete donor KYC.
What is the 85% utilization rule for charitable trusts?
To claim 100% tax exemption under Section 11, a registered trust must apply at least 85% of its total income towards its charitable or religious objects within the financial year. If you cannot spend 85%, the unspent amount must be accumulated by filing Form 9A or Form 10 before statutory cut-offs.
