Choose Your Structure

Three Ways to Register an NGO

Every NGO structure has its own advantages. We help you choose the right one and handle every step of the registration process.

📜

Trust Registration

A public charitable trust is one of the simplest and most flexible NGO structures in India. Ideal for small to medium-sized charitable activities.

  • Minimum 2 trustees required
  • Governed by Trust Deed
  • Registered under State Trust Act
  • Eligible for 12A, 80G, FCRA
  • Lower compliance burden
🤝

Society Registration

A registered society under the Societies Registration Act is suitable for cultural, educational, religious, and charitable purposes.

  • Minimum 7 members required
  • Governed by Memorandum & Rules
  • Democratic management structure
  • Eligible for 12A, 80G, FCRA, CSR-1
  • Good for mid-sized NGOs
🏢

Section 8 Company

A Section 8 Company under the Companies Act is the most professional NGO structure — ideal for large-scale, national, or internationally-funded organisations.

  • Minimum 2 directors required
  • Governed by MCA/Companies Act
  • Highest credibility & transparency
  • Eligible for 12A, 80G, FCRA, CSR-1
  • Best for CSR & foreign funding
Tax Exemptions & Foreign Funding

12A, 80G & FCRA Registration

After your NGO is registered, these three certifications unlock tax exemptions and funding access. We handle all three.

📋
Section 12A — Income Tax Exemption
Exempts your NGO's income from income tax so all resources can be directed to your charitable mission. Required before applying for 80G.
💸
Section 80G — Donor Tax Deduction
Allows your donors to claim 50% deduction on donations made to your NGO under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act — a major fundraising advantage.
🌍
FCRA — Foreign Contribution Regulation
FCRA registration is mandatory to legally receive donations, grants, or contributions from foreign sources. We handle the complete FCRA application process.
🏛️
NITI Aayog / Darpan Registration
Mandatory for NGOs seeking government grants. Registration on the NITI Aayog NGO-Darpan portal gives your organisation a unique ID for government scheme eligibility.
