Overview of 80G and 12A Registration

Because NGOs rely heavily on donations, securing tax relief under Sections 80G and 12A of the Incometax Act is essential—both for the organisation and for its donors. The application process is detailed and timeconsuming, often challenging for those without professional assistance.

Recent amendments now require every NGO already registered under these sections to complete a fresh reregistration to retain their tax benefits. In addition, any NGO seeking Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funding must file Form CSR1 with the authorities.

Registration Process

  • Set up the NGO – Register your trust, society, or Section 8 company with the relevant state or central authority.
  • Gather documents – Collect registration proof, trust deed/MOAbylaws, audited accounts, FCRA papers (if any), NGO Darpan ID, and other KYC details.
  • Complete Form 10A – Enter objectives, activities, and board details; attach the required files.
  • Submit online – File Form 10A and uploads on the Incometax efiling portal; keep copies for your records.
  • Taxoffice review – Authorities scrutinise the form, documents, and may inspect books or activities.
  • Decision – Approval leads to 12A & 80G registration; discrepancies trigger queries or rejection, with a chance to respond.
  • Get the certificate – On approval, download the registration certificate—your proof of taxexempt status for the NGO and deduction benefits for donors.

Documents Required

  • Selfcertified trust deed or founding instrument (or equivalent proof if no formal deed).
  • Selfcertified registration certificate with MOA / bylaws.
  • FCRA registration certificate (if applicable).
  • Audited financial statements for the last three years (two sets).
  • Latest audit report by a Chartered Accountant (if required).
  • NGO Darpan ID (if available).
