12A & 80G Registration for NGOs
Income-tax exemption and donor deductions for your NGO or trust
From from ₹14,999/-*
+ 18% GST · no lock-in
12A and 80G registrations are the two approvals every Indian NGO needs — 12A exempts the organisation's income from tax, and 80G lets donors claim deductions on their contributions.
We prepare and file your Form 10A / 10AB, handle departmental queries end to end, and deliver both registrations so your NGO is tax-efficient and donor-ready.
Why 12A and 80G matter
Without 12A registration, an NGO's surplus can be taxed like any other entity. With 12A, income applied to charitable objects is exempt, freeing more funds for your mission. 80G registration makes your NGO attractive to donors, because they can claim a deduction on their donations — which is often decisive for CSR and large gifts.
Together, the two registrations are effectively a prerequisite for serious fundraising, CSR partnerships and grant applications in India.
Who should apply
- Newly formed trusts, societies and Section 8 companies.
