How we help

Support across the NGO lifecycle

The right requirements depend on the entity type, state, activities, funding sources and applicable rules. We first assess your position and then outline the relevant services.

01

Entity-structure guidance

Discuss the practical differences among a charitable trust, society and Section 8 company, including governance and documentation considerations.

02

Formation & registration assistance

Support with preparing required information, reviewing documents and coordinating registration steps through the relevant authority.

03

12AB & 80G application support

Review relevant eligibility and documentation for applicable income-tax registrations or approvals, and assist with the application process.

04

Accounts & donation records

Set up a practical bookkeeping structure for receipts, grants, expenses and supporting documentation.

05

Annual returns & statutory compliance

Identify recurring obligations for the entity, including relevant tax and corporate or state-level filings where applicable.

06

CSR / FCRA readiness guidance

Discuss whether CSR-1 or foreign-contribution compliance may be relevant. Eligibility, registration and permissions depend on the applicable legal requirements.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Useful answers before you get started.

Should we register as a Trust, Society or Section 8 company?

The suitable form depends on your purpose, location, governance structure, members and long-term operational needs. Our team can help compare the options before you decide.

Does NGO registration automatically give us 12AB or 80G benefits?

No. Formation and income-tax registration or approval are separate matters with their own eligibility criteria and application processes.

Can Taxwink help an existing NGO with compliance?

Yes. Support may include reviewing registrations, organising books and donation records, identifying applicable annual filings and assisting with required submissions.

Can any NGO receive foreign donations?

Foreign-contribution rules are separate and subject to eligibility and applicable FCRA requirements. An NGO should confirm its legal position before accepting regulated foreign contributions.

Do you handle CSR-1 and donor documentation?

We can help assess the applicable documentation and registration requirements, where relevant. Eligibility for CSR funding and donor treatment must be evaluated separately.

How are service fees decided?

Taxwink reviews your entity type, current status and required services first. We then share a scope-based quotation and identify any government or third-party costs separately.

Let’s clarify your next step.
