12A and 80G registration for trusts, Form 10A and 10AB
What this means, checked by a CA
A trust, society or Section 8 company is not tax-exempt and its donors get no deduction until it is registered with the Income Tax Department. We file the provisional application before you start work, then the regular application and renewals on time, with the activity note and documents the Commissioner asks for.
₹4,999
One time, then renewal every 5 years (10 years for small NPOs), + 18% GST
- Delivered in Form 104: 2 working days after documents; Form 105: 5 working days after documents
- Due: Provisional: any time in the tax year for an NPO that has not started activities. Regular: within 6 months of starting activities if provisional, at least 6 months before expiry for renewal, within 30 days of changing objects.
